In the light of my tenth wedding anniversary, I decided to (re)read this book Original Love. While the book focuses most on marriage relationships, the principles it presents are relevant to all of our relationships. This book answers the question of why human relationships are so often the source of frustration and pain and what the antidote for this is. In this book you will learn about Agape, which is the real love; the "original" love. Agape is perfectly reflected in the Father and Son relationship, and God's plan was for the beauty of Agape to also be reflected in the marriage relationship.
I wish I could have had the ‘Comforter’ as a guide when I was 18 years old or even before I ever thought about getting married, then I would have made better choices. I would have made God my Comforter instead of looking for comfort in food, sexual relationships. I would recommend the ‘Comforter’ to any person from the age 18 and older, especially for the broken-hearted and those who did not had a stable childhood and God being the centre of their lives. This book is helping me with my relationship with God, our Father and His Son, Jesus Christ and in making better decisions in my lifestyle. I feel the writer has closed the gap in literature for non-Christians and Christian. I feel that this book is unique and will help non-Christians in finding a better relationship or understanding of God. Therefore I recommend this book to teachers, marriage-counselors, pastors, missionaries, lay-man and even phyciatrists and social workers. – E. Cooper, Cape Town, RSA
