40 Days with Jesus (eBook)

There are two fundamentally different approaches to living life in relation to God. The first approach is to jump up and down, trying to impress Him. The second is to relate to Him on the basis of grace. Though the first approach makes sense at first glance (since it is the way we get noticed), it comes with a whole load of baggage: guilt, shame, fear, pride. The way of grace is more subtle but is the way God actually has chosen to work. Grace is like breathing clean air. When you are surrounded by grace you flourish. Graceless living is like breathing carbon monoxide. You may not even realize it is killing you spiritually until it is too late. These reflections are easy to read, and often entertaining. But they are full of wisdom – and will show you how to live in the grace of Christ, day by day.

How well do you know Jesus? This little book of daily readings introduces you to the character and life of Jesus Christ.'My hope is that as you read, you'll discover, or will remember, just how central Jesus is to Christianity,' says Malcolm. 'Jesus didn't come to establish a religion, he came to change lives and to deal with the barriers that exist between God and us. Unfortunately, we Christians are very good at boxing him in. He doesn't like boxes - they feel a little too like tombs and Jesus has a tendency to refuse to stay in those. May you meet Jesus in a way that will change your life forever.'A short prayer accompanies each section.
