Held from October 7 to 11, 2026, in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, the 78th Frankfurter Buchmesse brought together members of the international book and media industry for a five-day celebration of literature, publishing, and creative exchange. As one of the major meeting points for the global publishing community, the fair created a space where publishers, authors, literary agents, booksellers, rights professionals, distributors, and other industry representatives could meet, share ideas, and explore opportunities for collaboration. Beyond showcasing books from different parts of the world, the event encouraged meaningful conversations about the future of publishing, the changing interests of readers, and the many ways stories can reach audiences across languages and cultures.
Among the titles represented by Citi of Books at this international literary gathering is “God Is Love: Not the God You Are Imagining” by R.I. Willroth. The book joins a diverse collection of literary works featured at the fair, representing the creativity, unique perspectives, and storytelling approaches that make the publishing world vibrant and diverse. Its presence at the event offers an opportunity to introduce the author’s work to a broader international audience while contributing to the exchange of stories and ideas among readers, authors, and publishing professionals. Through the representation of titles across various genres and themes, Citi of Books continues to support opportunities for authors to expand their reach and connect with new audiences in the global literary community.
“God Is Love: Not the God You Are Imagining” by R.I. Willroth is a spiritual re-examination of divine love and the nature of God — a book that invites readers to look beyond common cultural or religious assumptions and discover a deeper, more personal understanding of love at the heart of God.
This book challenges readers to move beyond superficial or culturally shaped views of God and to re-encounter the divine through the lens of love itself. The book begins by asking questions about love’s origin, meaning, and purpose, guiding readers to see that if God is the supreme force in the universe, then love must be an essential expression of that power. This is not only about ethical love (how we treat others) but about love as a foundational reality that shapes the nature of God and all creation.
The themes explored are especially relevant today, when many people carry wounded ideas of love based on past hurts, cultural expectations, or religious teaching that emphasized fear over compassion. This book invites a shift in perspective — from fear to hope, from judgment to acceptance, and from religious duty to heartfelt connection.
Ultimately, “God Is Love: Not the God You Are Imagining” is an invitation to rethink who God is and what divine love truly means. It encourages readers to move past familiar assumptions and to explore spirituality through the lens of unconditional love — a force that is not limited by human logic or experience but instead seeks to draw all people into a deeper understanding of goodness, compassion, and spiritual belonging.
