Kim Sorrelle · Books

Three books.
One truth.
Every scale.

Written from a cancer ward. From Haiti. From a year of living every word of 1 Corinthians 13 out loud. From a United Nations stage. And now, alongside Jack Canfield. Not theory. Not inspiration. Truth that cost something — and transformed everything.

Book 1 · Narrative Nonfiction

Love Is

A Yearlong Experiment of Living Out 1 Corinthians 13 Love

John says God is love. So to live like Jesus would be to live love. But what is love — really — and how would someone live it while crossing cultures with one foot on US soil and the other in places like Haiti?

Kim spent a year finding out. Patient. Kind. No record of wrongs. Not self-seeking. Not easily angered. Not just as ideals — as actual daily choices, on actual hard days, in Haiti and in Grand Rapids and in the grocery store checkout line.

The book that reached women in thirty countries. The one that started the conversation. The one that became the foundation of the Power of One™.

"I will figure out love one word at a time, taking 1 Corinthians 13 to heart and feet. Live it, learn it, love it."

Cry Until
You Laugh

Real Love. Real Pain. Real Funny.

It was September 5, 2008. 2:57 in the afternoon. The surgical oncologist's office called — breast cancer — and the crying started before Kim pushed END on the phone.

What followed was surgery, treatment, loss, and a grief she hadn't anticipated. Because before the treatment was finished, the most important person in her world — her husband Steve — was gone. Pancreatic cancer. March 2009.

Written as an email journal to the people who loved her through it, this book is the one that made women laugh and cry in the same paragraph — and feel, for the first time, completely understood.

"What I didn't know then was how dramatic the bends in the road were to be. My diary recorded every joy and tear. Won't you join me?"

Love: The Last
Revolution

"No nation holds it. No empire can contain it.
The greatest power in history has been right in front of us all along."

We've tried pride. It gave us war.
We've tried greed. It gave us poverty.
We've tried hate. It gave us division.
The last revolution will not be fought with weapons. It will be ignited by the greatest force in human history.
And we already hold it. Now it's time to unleash it.

From pulling life from rubble in Haiti to feeding first responders through the ash of 9/11, from refugee camps to a United Nations stage — Kim Sorrelle delivers the bold manifesto the world has been waiting for.

WHAT READERS SAY

These books change people.

I have given Love Is to twelve people. My sister. My college roommate. My daughter when she got married. My best friend when her marriage was falling apart. Every single person has called me afterward. Every single one.

Reader · Ohio

Cry Until You Laugh was the first book that made me feel like someone understood what grief actually is - not what we are supposed to say about it, but what it actually is. I read it after losing my mom. I laughed. I sobbed. I felt less alone for the first time in months. I will never not recommend this book.

Amazon reviewer · 5 stars

I was skeptical. Love Is sounded like another feel-good Christian book. It is not that. It is the most honest, practical, and quietly devastating book about love I have ever read. I have never highlighted a book more. I have never changed more from a book.

Reader · Texas

Every book Kim has written started the same way:
with something true that cost her something to say.
