Wherever you experience the love of God, it is always personal,
intimate, and life changing. The key to learning and choosing love is
tapping into divine love. The craving for love is our deepest emotional
need. We feel love and are drawn to others when they speak love in a
way we understand. This same principle applies to the most important
relationship—our relationship with God. Did you realize that the God of
the universe speaks in your love language, and that your expressions of
love for him are shaped by your love language? Learn how you can give
and receive God’s love through the five love languages—words of
affirmation, quality time, gifts, acts of service and physical touch.
Dr. Chapman’s goal for readers is that they may be led to explore the
possibility of speaking different love languages to God, and thus
expand their own understanding of God and others.
