Crazy Love
By Frances Chan
This book appears to have two purposes. The first is to clarify the gospel. There is a false gospel that suggests it is possible to be saved by accepting Jesus as Savior while rejecting Him (or ignoring Him) as Lord – as though it were possible to come to Christ in true, saving faith with a rebellious heart that refuses to bow the knee to Christ (sometimes known as “easy-believism” or “cheap grace” or the anti-Lordship salvation view. Chan exposes the error of that false gospel by pointing out the fact that while most people who claim to be Christians fall into the category of “lukewarm,” the lukewarm are not saved.
The other main purpose of the book has to do with generosity. Chan calls believers to radical selflessness and generosity. Chan avoids legalistic rules requiring any specific act of generosity. However he does offer suggestions (such as what he did – downsizing his house and giving away the difference). 
The book is motivating and convicting. However it seemed to me the book was designed to make the reader feel guilty, regardless of how generous the reader already is. One gets the impression that if you aren’t George Muller (who gave away everything and lived completely on donations from others), then you are selfish. Perhaps the book could be improved if it offered some encouragement to the degrees of selflessness that believers already have.
