davehershey's review against another edition
3.0
The only thing I knew about Bernard of Clairvaux prior to reading this book was that he was the main preacher of the second Crusade. As a borderline Anabaptist, I am not a fan of the crusades: those bloody wars do not bring to mind the idea of "loving God". Of course, the crusades are not mentioned in this book so they have really nothing to do with this review. On Loving God is very short, but filled with moving and inspiring text. My friends may think I am becoming Catholic as my list of Catholic mystics, monks and nuns whom I have read just in the last month is growing. That is not going to happen, but as I journey through this life I am learning that these treasures of the universal Christian church.
