Publisher's Summary

The Man Who Loved Too Much is a heartbreaking tale of jealousy and revenge in a place where there should be nothing but love. Mike Shapely decided to go into the ministry when his beloved wife died of cancer and found himself in a large, thriving church. Everything seemed to be going fine until he ran afoul of a power couple who had some unsettling ideas about who is and is not a Christian.

Meanwhile, he is shocked to find himself at odds with the church's celebrated pastor, Charles Ridley. The better Mike does in the pulpit, the colder and more remote Charles becomes. Then, an eager young pastor joins the staff with the vision of creating a faith statement to bring back the glory days of the Puritans. Mike refuses to sign it and finds himself in danger of losing his job.

Suspenseful and poignant, The Man Who Loved Too Much tells the story of a kindhearted pastor who is made to suffer for his talents and his generosity—not by the unbelieving world, but by the very church he came to serve.
