We live in a world that has rejected many of the truths and morality of the Christian faith, resulting in a multitude of serious problems for people, families, and our culture. That is one of the reasons I wrote, “The Incredible Journey of Knowing, Loving, and Following Jesus Christ.” My desire is to help people overcome the results of not following Christ by helping them take the journey of deepening their faith in Christ, or making the decision to become a follower of Jesus Christ.
The book, using scripture, quotes from throughout history, songs, and my own explanation, helps the reader to explore what it means to go on the lifelong journey of progressively becoming more like Jesus Christ. This journey God calls us to, looks inwardly at our character and outwardly at our actions, with the goal of growing in our love for God and people. The question is, how do we move toward having the image of Christ formed in us? A particularly good statement, that sums up the answer is; God wants to change what we ARE on the inside, and what we DO with our life!
To accomplish this the book seeks to explore questions such as: What is Christianity? Why is there evil in the world? Who is Jesus? What did Jesus do for us? How can we know Jesus? What does it mean to love Jesus? How do we follow Jesus? How can God use us to serve him as he brings his justice and righteousness to the world? And, what happens to us when we die?
The book can be used by an individual who wants to grow deeper in their faith or wants to become a Christian, in a small group, or to share with someone who has questions about Christianity.
