    Why We Don't Need Church Any Longer

    About this ebook

    I have always believed in God and His Son Jesus Christ. So have many others, including the devil. Believing in God and His Son is different than having a relationship with Jesus. In 2002, I fell in love with Jesus and our personal relationship grew and continues to grow.
    I knew that going to a Bible believing church was crucial for a new believer or rather a new follower of Jesus Christ (a term I prefer). So for the last 20+ years I have gone from one Church to another, never being satisfied for various reasons. Let’s face it we are living in a fallen world and this is the devil’s playground. Today’s churches and it’s leaders are not exempt. Tired of stiff necked pastors and compromising churches, including its members, I set out to find the truth of the Scriptures.

    Jennifer L Risley

    The day after she turned 26, Jennifer, a Christian was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. After coming home from the hospital she had an outer body experience where she was reassured that she was going to be fine. Going back to her home church, she was hurt by what members were saying. She wasn’t healed because she didn’t have enough faith or she wasn’t repentive enough. She has gone to many churches since then, and heard a lot of false teachings. The Bible says ask, search, knock and God will answer. God will make your path known. She is now wheelchair bound, her hands balled in tight fists. She wrote this book using her knuckles to type. She wants people to know the truth about God’s faithfulness and His love. We don’t need a church to teach us. Sometimes they only cripple us, besides, Jesus wants a personal intimate relationship with you.
