Unloved: The Rejected Saints God Calls Beloved - Paperback

by Elyse M. Fitzpatrick (Author)

Do you feel unloved by God?

- Encounter stories of God's love for the unloved
- Challenge the lie that you must earn God's love
- Reflect on God's love with study questions for each chapter
- Find comfort in God's love for you in Jesus

There is good news: you can't earn God's love. Whatever you have done or whatever has been done to you--none of it qualifies or disqualifies you from God's love.

In Unloved: The Rejected Saints God Calls Beloved, Elyse M. Fitzpatrick tells stories of God's faithfulness toward the misunderstood and often unfaithful saints of the Bible.

- Hosea and Gomer
- Sarah and Abraham
- Hagar and Photine (the woman at the well)
- Tamar and Judah
- Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz
- Bathsheba and David
- Mary and Joseph

These women and men suffered and failed and were often maligned. And yet they were also loved by God. His love for these messy saints reminds you that God also loves you--generously, lavishly, and freely. Jesus came for the outcasts, men and women burdened by shame or guilt and seen as unloved. And he calls you his beloved.
