Love Without Illusion: Loving Real People in Real Life explores what it means to love honestly in a world where disappointment, difference, and limitation are unavoidable.
Moving through relationships that shape every life—parents, siblings, spouses, friends, mentors, leaders, the poor, enemies, and the self—Geoffrey Schmitt writes with pastoral wisdom and lived experience. This book does not offer sentimental answers or quick resolutions. Instead, it invites readers to release idealization, confront reality with courage, and discover a love that endures precisely because it sees clearly.
Rooted in Scripture, prayer, and real encounters—from family life to prison ministry—Love Without Illusion presents a mature faith that chooses presence over fixing, discernment over guilt, boundaries over bitterness, and honesty over performance. It is a guide for those who want to love faithfully without pretending that life—or people—are easier than they truly are.
