    About this ebook

    Email Jesus is a forty-day Bible study for use at Lent or at any other desired time of the year. Its uniqueness lies in its delivery of daily reflections on Bible passages and exchanges of comments on those reflections by email, allowing participation from anywhere in the world. This format also allows complete time and location flexibility while one is participating in the course. Each morning of the course, every participant receives a daily lesson reflection and has the opportunity to email back his or her comments on it. Participants are encouraged to respond with personal viewpoints on each passage rather than academic theology. This volume is Course 5. It covers Bible passages where Jesus said things that are out of line with the expectations of polite society and disturbing when you examine them closely. Jesus had serious teachings to deliver, and he knew that his messages were rocking the boat for the religious and secular establishments of his day. This course will give you a chance to check the compatibility of some of these sayings with your own modern sensitivities.

      Stumbling Blocks That Delay Church Transformation Part 5

      May 20, 2022

      In my previous writings I have pointed out that institutionalised Christianity is fading away. Organised religious systems are sucking the life of Christ out of believers. In many cases, believers are busy with the church programme, but not with God.

      Do You Practice Buddhism Together With Another Faith?

      Mar 19, 2019
