Jesus was a thrilling, relatable new kind of God, a simple peasant who suffered the agonizing pain and humiliation of crucifixion. This radical new religion erased all hierarchies of power, seeing everyone as equal in the Lord, with immense dignity, even women and slaves.
In a mean, chaotic world, early Christians quickly became famous as a loving family with no poor. They took in orphans and widows, ministering to anyone sick even during pandemics, and feeding the poor, whether Christian or not.
Drawing from the Gospels and the early history of the church, the author highlights the wisdom of Jesus on love, compassion, humility, and faith.
Through practical examples and thoughtful reflections, readers are encouraged to apply these timeless lessons to their daily lives, fostering a deeper spiritual connection and a more harmonious existence.
Whether seeking personal growth or a better understanding of Christian ethics, this book offers valuable guidance on living according to Jesus’ teachings.
