The Practice of Love is now on Sale!
My contribution for this book tells the story about how I learned to love my enemies. The story revolves around my understanding of Proverbs 25:22 which talks about heaping coals on the head of your enemy.
Have you ever wanted to set fire to the head of your enemy and use this verse as justification?
I don’t think any judge or jury would accept your explanation, and as I learned, neither would God. If you want to learn more about how to love your enemies, and what Proverbs 25:22 means, check out this book.
Of course, even if you don’t care about your enemies, or better yet, don’t have any any enemies, I am not the only contributor to this book. There are numerous other entries from great authors and writers, and all of them tell stories about how they learned to practice love toward God, themselves, and others.
