What does love look like? Love is food and comfort to a ten-year old amputee, abandoned on the side of the road. Love is a new roof for an elderly widow installed before the rainy season. Love is sharing hope with the homeless man on your street corner.
Love is not just an ideal. Love is action. Love looks like something. For over thirty years, Rolland and Heidi Baker have been living examples of the love of Jesus to the people of Mozambique. Here they share incredible true stories of how – when they learned to stop for the one in front of them – God unleashed His miraculous power to change lives.
Yet God isn’t moving only in distant lands. He’s moving right where you are. If you are willing, He can – and will – do amazing things when you learn that love is as simple as stopping for the one in front of you. Because if you don’t stop, who will?

About the Author
Heidi and Rolland Baker, founders of Iris Ministries, served as missionaries in Indonesia and Hong Kong before following God’s call in 1995 to Mozambique. In the face of overwhelming need, the Bakers now watch God provide miraculously for well over 10,000 children every day through their ministry, and many more through the Iris network of more than 10,000 churches, Bible schools, primary schools and remote outreach programs. They live in Mozambique, Africa.
