Mike Shapely decided to go into ministry when his beloved wife died of cancer. To his own surprise, he found himself in a large, thriving Evangelical church. Everything seemed to be going fine until he ran afoul of a power couple who had some unsettling ideas about Revelation and whether Catholics are Christians.
He is also shocked to find himself at odds with the church's celebrated pastor, Charles Ridley. It seems 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 Calvinistic faith statement to bring back the glory days of the Puritans. When Mike refuses to sign it, he finds himself in danger of losing his job.
Suspenseful and poignant, THE MAN WHO LOVED TOO MUCH tells the story of a gentle, kindhearted man 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.
