One of the reasons why The Princess Bride is a favorite with so many people is that it appeals to us in many different ways, but most of all it is a love story, a story of true love that is so strong that nothing, not even death can stop it.

Therefore we make God’s love the driving force in our lives so that others can also have a forever home with God.
