Everybody, Always Bible Study Guide: Becoming Love in a World Full of Setbacks and Difficult People

by Bob Goff

What happens when we give away love like we're made of it? This study guide is a five-week experiment in learning how to love unconditionally--just as God does. To the world around us, this kind of unconditional love makes little sense. The world is really good at loving some people, sometimes. Most of us are. But what about loving people who don't talk like us, think like us, vote like us, or see the world like we do? In this five-session video Bible study (DVD/streaming video sold separately), Bob points the way to embodying love by doing the unexpected, the intimidating, the seemingly impossible--to love everybody the way Jesus loved them--without fear, insecurity, or reservations... Each session explores a different aspect of unconditional Following Christ means more than just putting a toe in the water when it comes to loving others. It means grabbing your knees and doing a cannonball! And, as Jesus revealed, it means loving the difficult ones. The Everybody, Always Study Guide provides practical steps to help you take that journey. Includes video discussion questions, Bible exploration, personal study and reflection materials for in-between sessions, and a leader's guide. Designed for use with the Everybody, Always Video Study (9780310095361), sold separately.

Bob Goff has a way of taking truly serious subjects and turning them into something easy to understand and personally relate to. I highly recommend this book. I had to read it chapter by chapter each morning. Each chapter offered me inspiration and helped me start my day with renewed ability to love, always!

I absolutely loved this book and loved listening to Bob read it. It helped me to realign my perspective amidst this crazy, negative world and set my sights back on serving God through living people. I can't recommend this book enough and plan to read it again.

He writes in a lighthearted voice about heavy and important things. Over simplified? Maybe, but that's just the point; sometimes theology and knowledge stop movement more than they help it and we need a reset of priorities. I really loved this book and will read it again!

We did this as a bible study at our church in several small groups. It brings the book to life in tangible ways as you partake in several different activities. A departure from the more traditional bible study for sure. Very enjoyable.

Great companion to the book

This study guide provides further food for thought and practical application to the Everybody Always book and five week video series for small groups. It is both challenging and user-friendly.

Other than the Bible, this book has impacted my life, the most of any other book. Bob Goff is a super fun character, who brings stories and morals into this amazing, "sort of biography". You will be inspired to love people beyond the amount you have, and to be more like Jesus.
One of my absolute favorite books and a must read.

Good book for 2 reasons. First it’s a book that will challenge you to love everybody always, especially love that creep you out. Secondly you will thoroughly enjoy Bob’s stories and adventures. He seemingly has no fear. I’m inspired to love those around me in a new way whether o like them or not, whether they are like me or not.
