The New York Times bestseller now tells kids how they too can live secretly incredible lives! Bob Goff, father of three, took his kids on a world tour to eat ice cream with heads of state. He made friends in Uganda, and they liked him so much that he became the Ugandan consul. His grades weren't good enough to get into law school, so he sat on a bench outside the Dean's office for seven days until they finally let him enroll. Bob is one of the world's most delightfully engaging and winsome people, and he raised his children to live the same way: to love God and love people. But it's not the kind of love that stops at thoughts and feelings. The Goffs' love takes action. They believe that Love Does. When Love Does, life gets interesting. Each day turns into a hilarious, whimsical, meaningful opportunity to make faith simple and real. Each chapter is a story that gives students the confidence to live a fully charged life for Jesus. There is never an "I'm bored" day when living a Love Does life.
