ENDORSEMENTS
T he purpose of Always Loved can be summed up in this verse: We love, because He first loved us (1 John 4:19). Discovering the love that is beyond measure has been a great challenge for so many. Author Brent Lokker does all of us a great service by addressing the lies that hinder our perception of such love and the truths that supersede such lies. Chapter by chapter, you will journey into the full discovery of His love that doesnt have to be earned. You will be encouraged by realizing who you are in the Fathers eyes, which then makes it normal to truly love the broken and to carry out great exploits.

The Baptism of Love is personal, powerful, and passionate. Transform your life and the world around you by receiving love and giving it away.

T he whole church world is being enlivened by a rediscovery of God as Father. To know Him at any level is to recognize that of all the things He wanted to be called, Jesus who knows His Fathers heart, commanded us to pray, Our Father Had He wanted something besides sons and daughters, He would have had us call Him something besides a Father! The rediscovery of God as Father is at the heart of revival and as the truth and dynamic of is known, the fruit of this reviving will prove immediate and residual.
The Father/Son paradigm is not only the centerpiece of civilization; it is the DNA of the entire cosmos. Thank you, Brent, for a clear voice and a good read in this splendid book.

T his book comes from the heart-fought struggle of a servant realizing he is a beloved son. Watching this amazing metamorphosis gives Brent all the credibility he needs to write a book in leading others to freedom, joy and peace. Get ready to break free from the performance trap as you experience this book.

W hat Jesus reveals about the Father of the human race puts the devil and religion out of business! Have we not all one father? Has not one God created us? (Malachi 2:10) In God we discover that we are not here by chance or accident, or by the desire of an earthly parent. Neither are we the product of a mere physical conception. We exist by the expression of Gods desire to reveal Himself in the flesh.
Thank you Brent Lokker for your bold declaration of the Father! This is a most needed message that the world must hear!
FRANCOIS DU TOIT
Author of The Mirror Translation
T here are good messages, there are significant thoughts, and then there are strategic holy summons that carry a fiery mandate meant to revolutionize the masses. I make it a point to wake up each morning and intentionally receive the inward affirmation and adoration of the Father. Im convinced that this might be one of the most significant catalysts on the earth. Jesus embodies the perfect model and will of the Father for all of His sons and daughters and He began His ministry with this epic Paternal download. The Old Testament concludes with this mandate that centers around turning the hearts of the fathers to the hearts of the sons or else a curse is left in its wake. One of the greatest disorders (curses) in our hour is the orphaned spirit that drives so many towards an illegitimate mentality and lifestyle. Yet, in order for us to fully walk in this coming move of God (which will sweep the earth and bring about a massive harvest), we must get this message deep down in our hearts.
