Nashville, Tennessee (October 31, 2016) – B&H Publishing Group announces the upcoming release of Maria Goff’s first book, Love Lives Here: Finding What You Need in a World Telling You What You Want (March 7, 2017). Fans of bestselling author Bob Goff will recognize Maria Goff as “Sweet Maria” from the pages of Love Does. Just as Bob’s bestselling book shared stories of love in action, Maria’s Love Lives Here will feature stories of living with intentionality, passion, purpose and “just a little bit of planning.”
“Love Lives Here is about craving the things that matter most and living intentionally,” comments Jennifer Lyell, Trade Book Publisher for B&H Publishing Group. “I’m excited to see how God uses this book to inspire readers to live the beautiful life He has for each of them.”
Love Lives Here reveals what loving one’s family looks like on a daily basis. Maria Goff shares how she and Bob navigate their family through life’s adventures, making space to grow together as they reach outward to love those around them.
Maria has spoken to women around the world via IF: Gathering events and contributes regularly to the IF: Gathering blog. She and Bob have travelled around the globe, answering questions about their “whimsical” lifestyle, serving those in need, and encouraging people to love Jesus and crave things that matter.
B&H will support the release of Love Lives Here with a national marketing campaign, including a unique presale helping retailers, national book tour, top-tier advertising, and a VIP outreach campaign to friends of Maria Goff. The presale campaign will begin in January 2017. The deal was negotiated by Bryan Norman at Alive Literary.
