Love one another —the resurrection of an old truth Love one another. These three simple, yet weighty, words are not old advice or an old suggestion. They’re a command, a directive, an authoritative word to be obeyed and put into practice. The ancient commandment to love one another still matters in the ongoing drama of redemption. Yet, divisions and disunity show us that it’s not that simple . . . or easy. We focus a lot on the love of God—as we should. But His love isn’t always realized in our relationships with one another. A Love to Live By roots the rationale for mutual love deeply in the Scriptures and provides a robust biblical grounding for the why of mutual agape love in the church. With depth and warmth, Dr. Winfred Neely also shares examples of mutual agape love, providing readers with imaginative ideas about what the practice of mutual love could look like in their context and sphere of influence. Ministry leaders, pastors, educational leaders, and anyone who wants to understand the biblical grounding of what it means to love—and who wants to grow in Christian love—will be equipped and encouraged by A Love to Live By . WINFRED NEELY (BA, DMin Trinity International University; MA Wheaton) is currently working towards an advanced research degree in Old Testament at the University of Bristol, England. He is an ordained minister of the gospel and was a professor of hermeneutics, homiletics, and pastoral studies at Moody Bible Institute of Chicago for more than twenty years.

He brings to his ministry a global perspective, having served as a missionary/pastor in Senegal, West Africa, for nine years. He is also involved in a global equipping ministry, speaking and conducting workshops and training events at churches and conferences in the US and abroad. He and his wife, Stephne, have been married for forty years and have four adult children and nine grandchildren.
