Real Love for Real Life: The Art and Work of Caring

Because we are made in the image of a creatively caring God, we reflect his love and concern when we respond to the distinct calling to care for families, neighbors, friends, and communities. As society grows increasingly technological, isolated, and lonely, those who take their caregiving gifts seriously can fill a tremendous void.

Through personal illustrations, timely research, and thoughtful quotations, Andi Ashworth addresses the practicalities, philosophies, challenges, and joys of providing care in the relationships of home and community-leading readers to a greater understanding of the value and the validity of their call to be caregivers. With the encouraging hope and creative insights they'll find in these pages, they can serve others in more effective, more fulfilling ways-in the name of God.
