I love this book. It is one of those that can hit a nerve, but I see it like sitting through a sermon. If you sit through a sermon every Sunday and your toes are never stepped on, something needs to change. Either you need a new church, need to pay attention, or need to open your heart. This book is like that. It is so easy to see Jesus in a box and forget the other parts of him- he ate with "sinners", called people names, judged, got angry, drank wine. That does change who he is, but realizing this can make our walk with him much more rewarding.
Quotes from the book…
“We find a version of Jesus we like and we stick with it. We opt for the bits we like most and propagate them…”
“We can reinforce the God-given potential in every human being in our thoughts and actions.”
“The reality is that Jesus was judgmental.”
“The Holy Spirit infused work of God’s people is His prescription for the ills of the world.”
