Bradley Jersak Knihy

Exploring the nature of God, the author challenges traditional views that depict Him as punitive or distant. Instead, he advocates for a vision of God that is entirely Christlike, embodying self-giving love and radical forgiveness. By examining how distorted images of God have permeated both personal beliefs and church teachings, the book encourages a reimagining of God as inherently 'cruciform'—reflecting the character of Jesus. This perspective offers a transformative understanding of divine love and grace, presenting a hopeful message for believers and skeptics alike.

Das Buch beleuchtet das Wesen Gottes und räumt mit verbreiteten Missverständnissen auf. Es richtet sich an ein breites Publikum, einschließlich theologischer Laien, und beantwortet mutig und verständlich Fragen, die viele möglicherweise nur unbewusst stellen. Der Autor schafft es, komplexe Themen zugänglich zu machen und regt zur Reflexion über Glaubensüberzeugungen an.

"This book is a children's picture book feature 16 piece of art, depicting stories from the Bible about Jesus. Each picture will be accompanied by text that tells readers that in each of these stories, Jesus was showing us what God is like. Namely, perfect love."--

"The Bible is an essential aspect of the Christian faith, but Christians have often equated the Bible with the living Word-Jesus-even elevating the Scriptures above the One to whom they point. In doing so, they have distorted the Bible's central message and their view of God. People struggle with depictions of God in Scripture as wrathful, violent, and genocidal. Author and theologian Bradley Jersak offers a clarifying and freeing path forward, whether readers consider themselves believers, doubters, or skeptics, inviting them to a better and more ancient way to read the Scriptures that he calls the "Emmaus Way." The book demonstrates how all of Scripture, by design, points to Jesus, revealing the true nature of God the Father"-- Provided by publisher
