What do you get someone showing interest in finding out more about Jesus Christ? This is a good starter! Reading the Bible is an alien experience for people today, so this book puts the Christianity Explored approach to Mark's Gospel into print form. Accessible and with links to CE website a useful pass-it-on.
This book explores and examines St Mark's Gospel and Jesus' life and teachings contained therein. Using a lot of relevant and contemporary anecdotes, he [Rico] explains that the human heart is fundamentally flawed and ultimately wicked. The only way to gain God's kingdom is by loving God wholeheartedly and forsaking all else to enter on our knees, full of repentance, with the unquestioning devotion and reliance on God's grace as a small child is dependent on its parents for everything. Jesus was sent to suffer and die for all our sins, and if we truly trust this to be the case and follow Jesus' life and example we can rejoice and join Christ's community, and mix with like minded Christians at church to partake of their love and strength and encouragement and guidance. A very compelling read. logically worked through and very in depth of all the Scriptures. A truly well researched document bringing in facts from a vast database of biblical knowledge. A must for the inquisitive sceptic.
This book faithfully presents the Gospel in a clear, concise, contemporary, interesting, and lucid way. I have given a copy to several people who are willing to search for the truth.
I bought this book to give to a group of Mums who were doing the Christianity Explored Course. I found it a good summary of all the material presented in the DVD and the course. It describes the same examples as the DVD and as such can be read to go over what has been covered.
An excellent purchase. I attended this course through my local Church and this book enhances what I have learned.
My non Christian friend had been asking questins and gave her this. It is easy to read and very thought provoking and led to lots more conversations. Great!
I bought this book for some relatively new Christians and it was everything and more than I hoped it would be. Learnt a lot myself, it is in plain everyday language that is easy to read but doesn't stray away from Mark's Gospel.
Thoroughly recommend it to anyone however far they are along the Christian journey.
This is a very enjoyable and readable book. The references to films and modern life really help the reader relate to what is being said while all the truths of the Gospel are faithfully stated.
For anyone who is searching about God & Christianity and is prepared to sit down and read,this is an invaluable introduction to the Christian faith.
The chapter on Jesus - His Death is so powerful. I am passing this on to any interested people I talk to.
This book is funny and very readable. It will appeal to anyone but particularly those with the usual "big questions" who are beginning to search for God. Everything is argued from the Bible itself, including the authenticity of the Bible. This is obviously great, but ironically may be the only downside to this book - that it might be completely written off by people who don't think the Bible has any weight.
This is a great book for anyone who has been to a Christianity Explored course but it's also great for those who are a bit reluctant to come along. I gave away five copies after a church service and several of the people who took them have now asked to come to the next course.
It is very easy to read but clearly sets out the Christian gospel. And the chapter on Grace seems to have a particularly significant impact on people.
