I hope that reading this book will help you to wake up to God's love in fresh, even unexpected, ways. This is your one, wild life. The only way to live it well is to live well in love. The only way to live well in love is to let God love you, and others through you. This will change everything. Don't settle for being defined by glamour, social media status or anything else. You are worth so, so, so much more.
