Mud pies. Sandy scribbles. Dirty feet.
These images tell a story of how Jesus reached down to love us in the muck and mire of our lives and in doing so revealed the true nature of God.
‘When Love Bends Down’ breaks away from overspiritualized Christianity and reaffirms the “nitty-gritty loving one another” lifestyle that Jesus originally called us to – a Christianity that first finds its expression in our love toward others. With precision and craftsmanship, Michael Lodahl takes the threads of Christ’s love found in the writings of John and weaves them together into a beautiful picture of a love that poked below the surface of false piety, that slavishly washes the dirt and dust off road-worn feet, and that gives up everything – even life itself – for others.
This profound portrait of incarnational Christianity shows you a God who willingly opens His hands, stoops down, and reaches people where they are. It will challenge you to bend down and do the same.
