‘Loving Messy People is a biblical treasure chest of encouragement, hope, pastoral wisdom, and practical instruction that brings the gospel to life and enables the reader to not only discover and learn but actually implement and reproduce gospel care and love. It is an essential tool for any pastor or Christian looking to effectively and biblically love and serve others in the power and likeness of Jesus Christ. Scott Mehl puts the gospel in "3-D, high definition sound" by providing the church with a redemptive framework and playbook for gospel love in action. I highly recommend this book for any Christian seeking to apply the radical, life-changing love of the gospel to the messy lives around them.’ Ryan Townsend, Executive Director, 9Marks
