Summary:
Work, sex, ice cream, religion-they all promise fulfillment. But what they deliver is fleeting.
Jesus
knew
about
this quest. He came to show us that peace is possible in this
life
, not just the next one. Yet Christianity, the very
religion
that claims
Jesus
as its own, has often built the biggest barriers to him and the
life
he
promised
. Celebrated speaker and pastor Shane Hipps revives the faith with a fresh and persuasive understanding of the message of
Jesus
. The shocking truth is that
Jesus
proclaimed "eternal
life
" as a present reality that dwells within each of us. A transformative breakthrough, this
book
goes beyond "
religion
" or "spirituality" and cuts to the heart of our humanity and existence. It's
about
realizing that we already possess what we are searching for, and that the Heaven we long for isn't just a gift when we die, but a gift while we live.
