Compelled by Love: How to change the world through the simple power of love in action

Compelling and heart moving! This story tells of a love that passes all understanding! It speaks of a love so deep you could never match it. God calls us all to love others as we love ourselves or better yet as Christ loves us! This beautifully written story tells of how a women drawn, by the love of Christ impacted thousands, lived on faith and fed 100’s of hungry children with no more than a prayer of faith! Naomi

As a Catholic falling deeply in love with Jesus I loved this story of Heidi Baker’s work in Mozambique interspersed with prayers and wisdom from Mother Teresa. It was a cross-denominational, cross-political, cross-cultural meditation on the love of Jesus and how to let it change your life. Letting love be your prayer. Going lower still. Sitting at Jesus’ feet. Highly recommend.

Following the life of Hiedi Baker is truly amazing. She gives her life to exemplify the love of Christ! A must read if you love Jesus!

This book popped up as advertisement, but after purchasing it and reading it, I know it was a book I was supposed to read. Heidi Baker is the epitomy of love. It oozes off the pages of this book. I am compelled to the point of dying more to myself, and God loves manifesting thru my life. By faith I am there, but this is were the scripture: "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling". I know that anything done apart from love profits nothing. I now have a new perspective of love in action. You have to totally die to any aspirations of your own, and put on the Lord Jesus Christ in love, truly seeing everyone through the eyes of LOVE (Jesus). This will bring about a change in you. I ask God daily to change me, and I give Him permission to do so. Father has not asked us to do anything beyond our ability from and thru Him. We have no excuse not to walk in love. I am determined to be LOVE to everyone I meet and see, extending Jesus. I have sown this book in the lives of others, knowing that whatever I sow or make happen for others, I will receive from LOVE Himself. A must read. It challenges you to increase in our love walk.

Although you won't find it in the periodic chart, love is the most important element in the world. Jesus said that the two great commandments are to love God and to love our fellow man as ourselves. We as Christians talk a lot about the concept of love, but do we actually practice it? Is our love selective so we pour it all out on those we find loveable? I sometimes think that many people don't even have a concept of the true nature of love. The Bakers certainly don't fall into that category. The selfless love which they have poured out on the downtrodden people of the world is inspirational in the most humble of terms. In reading of their great compassion and caring for everyone they encounter, I saw in stark contrast my inability to measure up to the Lord's standard. To whom much is given, much is expected. Heidi Baker has been given a mighty dose of God's love. She has been faithful to reciprocate in giving back that love not only to God but to the least of his children. As result, God's miraculous provision has been bestowed upon the Baker family and their ministry time and time again. They daily walk in the miraculous while the majority of Christians would be hard pressed to point out one definitive miracle that they've witnessed in their walk.

Reading 'Compelled by Love' took my husband to Heidi and Roland's school in Africa in search of experiencing and learning from Biblical Love being truly lived, that choice changed the course of both our lives, without it we might never have met, we are both on a journey of learning to become Love. This book is full of beautiful real life stories of love and forgiveness and the unconditional love of God changing everything - in the darkest places his Love shines brightest! If you want to learn the love of the Father, go and Love the fatherless and he will give you his heart and pour out his miracles..... Without doubt this book is top of the list for must have reads that, if you let them, will change your life.

Wonderful book

This is the real story of the very real Jesus Christ at work in Mozambique. This is Christianity at it's finest. This is Heidi and Rolland Baker's work in that country and around the world, where they are constantly at work. This is the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew chapter 5, the New Testament) lived out. Did you think, like I did, that it was an impossible scripture to live? Are you tired of bible studies, (always learning and never doing,) or listening to people tear down other people's ministries for no reason but to defend their own narrow belief systems? Here is a book to challenge you to higher thinking and living. Like the Bible, you may need to read it more than once to get it, really get it, that's what I think! Get on a positive track and emulate this woman, if you dare. It will take your all and give you back more than you can think or dream of.
