An unexpected journey toward unconditional love
Like so many men, Tim Muldoon assumed that life followed a script. More to the point, he assumed that love would follow a script one determined by his own choices. When the script changed, as it inevitably does, Tim was forced to ask some critical questions: How could he bring his disparate desires into harmony with one another? Could he make the journey to where his true dreams seemed to be leading him? Should he or could he venture into the unknown territory of selfless love?
In meditative, heartfelt prose, best-selling author Tim Muldoon shows how authentic love grows through unexpected twists and turns in a relationship, and how by following the deepest desires of his heart, he found the freedom to become his best and most passionate self.
From sex to self-giving love, from the desire to be loved to the desire to serve God in the person of his wife, from resisting adoption to loving his two adopted daughters with unbridled joy, Muldoon shares with us his personal love story, whose altered script he came to embrace. Through Muldoon s journey, each of us is invited to consider how falling in love can become our greatest adventure with God.
Includes discussion points for couples in love!
