In Love is the Point, Carlos and Alexa PenaVega has written a book on critical it is to remember and focus on love and share it with others. Love should be the main point of our existence. This book is divided up into short devotionals for 100 days. They both realized that fame and being a celebrity couldn’t ever be the most important aspect of their lives and marriage. They explained how they were forgiven by God and loved by him. They shared how they learned to love each other and love their friends. They also shared a lot on one of their best friend’s, Andrew and how he chooses to reach out to others anytime they need assistance and is active example of love in action. They shared how he asked them to start a Bible study in their home. Lex explained how she wasn’t looking forward to it at the time and didn’t want to host and invite a lot of people in their home. She eventually agreed to and it tried out to be one of the best decisions she ever made. They had Bible study, worship, and fellowship with about 50 other people. She explained how we need to create our homes as a welcoming place for others and we can show them hospitality.
In the book, Los also opened up about his past struggles with pornography. When he received Christ, he began to feel led to give up this habit. God was calling in and instructing him to become more holy. He relied on the help of the Holy Spirit to help break this addiction. He suggested that readers find their one person who we fully trust and have them support us in our journey to let go. Lex also shared how she struggled with an eating disorder in her teens. Her own mother made a comment about Katharine McPhee and how when she revealed her own struggle with bulimia. She felt people would always judge her and she would forever be known as someone who dealt with bulimia. Her mother was just trying to protect her own daughter. But Lexa disagreed and knew she needed to acknowledge her secrets and bring them into the light. She shared how we need to share our deep secrets with someone we trust as we love in action task.
I would recommend this awesome book to anyone who is ready to love stronger and learn to truly love others like Christ does. This book is extremely helpful for marriage couples to use as a devotional together. You could also benefit from it from being single it could help you to love in the future. Each day had a short story and a love in action task to complete. I especially loved the tasks and thought it immensely helped to live out love each day. There stories are very personal and they try to make the content relatable.
"I received this book free from the publisher, Thomas Nelson for my honest review.”
