10 Things Jesus Never Said: And Why You Should Stop Believing Them
Quick Overview
If you met Jesus, do you think he'd say "I'm so disappointed in you" or "You don't measure up"? Davis encourages you to stop believing what Jesus didn't express and start embracing the things he did! Drawing on Scripture, Davis frees you from the theology of failure so you can experience God's forgiveness and unconditional love.
Too often Christians carry a lot of guilt and baggage when it comes to their relationship with God. The problem is that so many of us believe unbiblical, damaging things about how critical God is and how fed up he must be with us. But many of the things we think Jesus would say to us--things like "I can't believe you call yourself a Christian," "If you really loved me, you'd try harder," and "I'm so disappointed in you"--are things he never said. The solution, says Will Davis Jr., is to stop believing the lies and start believing the things Jesus did say.
In 10 Things Jesus Never Said, Davis unmasks commonly believed myths about our relationship with God and shows readers how to replace this pervasive theology of failure with the truth of how Jesus really feels about them. Discussion questions at the end of each chapter help small groups or individuals apply these truths to their current situations. Anyone who has ever felt that they didn't measure up to God's standards will love this freeing exploration of grace and forgiveness.
