About this listen

The runaway New York Times best seller!

Can a simple concept shift your entire world? Bob certainly thinks so. When it comes to loving your neighbors, rather than focusing on having the "right answers" or checking the "right boxes", what if you decide to simply do love? To shamelessly show love and grace to those around you? What would that look like?

It might look like spending 16 days in the Pacific Ocean with five guys and a crate of canned meat. It might look like taking your kids on a world tour to eat ice cream with heads of state. It might look like taking a road trip with a stressed-out college student—even though you just got married a few days before.

In Love Does, Bob shows you:

  • how to live a fully engaged life;
  • how to stop putting things off until “next time” and instead find your place of imagination, whimsy, and wonder today;
  • that God usually chooses ordinary people to get things done.

When love does, life gets interesting. Light and fun, unique and profound, the lessons drawn from Bob's life and attitude in this collection of stories just might inspire you to be secretly incredible, too. If you love Love Does, don’t forget to check out Everybody, Always and Dream Big for more of Bob’s delightful and inspiring stories!

Wow- Bob, Maria and their friends are inspiring people to learn from. Honest, simple, costly and genuine- love does is a challenge to the core. Thanks for all the work Bob- this book has nudged me a few degrees closer to who Jesus wants me to be….uncomplicated and real. Thank you.
