The Steadfast Love of the Lord: Experiencing the Life-Changing Power of God's Unchanging Affection (Ebook)
By Sam Storms
A Clear, Biblical Picture of God’s Unconditional Love for His Children
Many believers know that “God is love.” But whether through cultural lies, false beliefs, or years of mulling over the tragedies of the world, it may be difficult to see the true, steadfast, and unchanging love of the Father. Thankfully the Bible offers a clear picture of what God’s love looks like and how, through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, believers experience his affection for themselves.
Taking an accessible approach to biblical theology, author Sam Storms explores Scripture to address what God’s love is and what it isn’t. Drawing insights from the Psalms and the life of Jesus, Storms covers God’s sovereignty and the saving power, longevity, and sin-killing nature of his love. The Steadfast Love of the Lord breaks down obstacles that prevent believers from accepting biblical truths and challenges the cultural lies that hinder them from accepting God’s vast and unfathomable love.
- Accessible: An introductory approach to biblical theology, this book is perfect for laypeople and thoughtful Christians
- Practical: Not only helps believers study the nature of God but helps them experience his affection for themselves
- Honest: From a biblical perspective, this book addresses the cultural lies of our age to explain what love is and what it isn’t

“Sam Storms has blessed me so many times through his life and ministry, but the honesty and hope of this book moved me in a special way. We all need help to keep going when life brings suffering, and Sam teaches us how: look to the steadfast love of the Lord. Sam shows us how to take refuge in God’s love even when we cannot understand his ways (which will surely happen to us all). This richly biblical series of meditations will be edifying to everyone who reads it and will bring special comfort and strength to those who are struggling with doubts or spiritual dryness.”

“When the Creator of the universe calls himself ‘I AM,” he reminds us that he is in control through the good times and the bad. Those words also remind us that God loves us—unconditionally, passionately, consistently. He loves us when a child dies, when a cancer diagnosis is made, when a marriage crumbles, and when death arrives. We may not know why we experience these trials, but we can know with absolute assurance that God’s love for us is steadfast, never changing, always present. Drink in the pages of this book and let Sam Storms remind you that God is love—and that he will always love you.”
Janet Parshall, nationally syndicated talk show host
“This new book by veteran Bible teacher Sam Storms is a spiritually refreshing, joy-inspiring, pastorally wise study of one of the most important concepts in the Bible: God’s steadfast love. Readers of this book will find themselves overwhelmed by a deeper, fuller awareness of God’s loving presence.”
Wayne Grudem, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus of Theology and Biblical Studies, Phoenix Seminary
“For years, long after earning a PhD in theology, my greatest theological struggle has been an almost subconscious doubt of God’s love for me. I knew this truth in my head, of course, but struggled to grasp the reality with my heart. I am thankful for Storms’s scripturally faithful and pastorally insightful treatment of this incredible subject. I only wish I’d read it sooner! Someone once said that the gospel is like a well: the best water is found by going deeper. We simply cannot steep ourselves in the gospel of God’s love enough. Enjoy this book.”
