LONGWOOD, FL-Many people have no solid foundation to rely upon when it seems like the earth is shaking beneath their feet. Yet, throughout the centuries, thousands of believers have stood in the face of unbelievable odds and remained steadfast in faith, believing in the promises of God. One such believer, Dr. Carl Branker, author of So Great Is His Love (paperback, 978-1-60266-142-4), attempts to define God's nature and character so we might discover our divine destiny in the world.
The book's journey began with a single, long-ago conversation: "While praying, I had a vision of God weeping and I said, 'Lord, why are You weeping?'" says the author. "He said, 'My son, the world is yet to hear the message of My love.' I pondered that statement for a moment before asking God how it could be. He said, 'There are a lot of messages being taught around the world, yet the world is not grasping My true love. If people could receive the knowledge of My unconditional love and experience it through My children, they would flock to the church.'"
That message firmly in mind, Branker embarked on a years-long pilgrimage to remedy the lack of knowledge of God's true nature toward humanity. He believes his revelations will bring light to minds disillusioned from the confusion of religion and secularism. "Most people are searching for love more than anything else, yet it is something that has been given to us since the foundations of the world," says Branker. "It is in those moments of searching for real love that we need the assurance we can run to God and feel His unending love."
