Simple and Effective Tool

Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2019

5 stars of 5. The LOVE tool is excellent in its simplicity and I really appreciate the Biblically-based approach without the psycho-babble. The best way to drive nails is with a hammer--it doesn't require training, just practice. Using the LOVE method throughout the week has been effective in ways I didn't expect, and helped with fear I didn't realize I had. The Lord truly does set free.

Author digs at Trump. Amazon, don't deny this review because I’ve spoke my freedom of speech

Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2019

I liked this book. Very inspiring, but it had some political references in it. Specifically referencing President Trump. It used the phrase “fake news.” A LOT. Which was largely made famous by Trump. One chapter talked about how sheep shouldn’t lead other sheep, because they’ll fall off the path of love and end up singing, “I did it my way.” Which was played at Trump’s inaugural ball. To me this suggests that the author is saying Trump is trying to lead us in a religious way and will lead us off God’s path. So I gave two stars. I bought and read this book for religious purposes, not so I could read about the authors political stance. It sounds as though the author has some fears of his own he should be addressing with God, not his readers.

If You Want Effectiveness Without Drudgery, This is the Tool - LOVE

Reviewed in the United States on October 25, 2019

I absolutely loved reading this book. Unlike what another reviewer reported, I found that the author’s use of popular terms like “fake news” were done simply to describe fear in an easy-to-understand way using a term we hear a lot these days; not to take a shot at the President or Conservativism. The pertinent question to ask is, “Is this the truth?” Truth is the telltale factor and I found that to be the case in this discourse on fear. LOVE really is the answer! Before I was half way through the book, I began implementing the first couple of tools and was able to easily stave off a spiral of worry, fear and bad decision. This is exactly the kind of help I've needed to conquer fear, but didn't what to do beyond quoting scripture. Now I can. After all, the Bible says, "Perfect love casts out ALL fear," and "All things are possible with God." This book enlightened me as to how to partner with the Truth (The Way and the Life) and take one more step to look like Him.

A must read for those who are controlled by fear

This book is key to the biblical truths that teach us that we need not fear anything. God is for us, so who can be against us? The author has dealt powerfully with this subject of fear.. Christ has conquered everything for us and now we can walk in faith in what He has done for us on the cross and through His resurrection. I highly recommend this book and the absolute truth presented in it.

Great spiritual weapon to get rid of your fear

In my past, I have been cheated on multiple times and just fell into a hole of depression and not feeling good enough. I had just been scared of letting my walls down, trusting God, and trusting anyone else. I had so much fear and could not break through it. This book was a great weapon and helped me break through the fear and not feeling good enough and I’m finally free. Buy the book if you are struggling with any kind of fear.

This book is pact with powerful biblically based concepts. No fluffy messages in this book.

If you want a clarity about fear and how it uses you, with and without you knowing? This is the book.

This book gave me clarity. It deals with your mind and deeply into your heart. This teaches you how to walk in the Path of Love instead in the Path of Fear.

Understand the L.O.V.E. steps is a very practical way to operate in this world.

I've never heard of this author until a few days ago. He gave his personal testimony which is very helpful.. This book will help you recognize the difference Love and Fear. Its very transformative thru the understanding of God's word.

You want your life to make more sense? READ this book, and apply it.

Yes its easy to read and simple to do. But it can take you far, if you create a habit by following the steps.

I have just finished this wonderful book. Next I'm reading it again! I believe I got so excited about what I was reading I might have not fully grasped each point. I purchased a copy for my friend and one for myself, we have been going through it together, but now I will be recommending it to several other friends. Thank you for such down to earth, practical, Biblical instruction to change my life & live triumphantly as God intended.
