Product Description:
What would you do if you met someone you thought just might be one of Jesus original disciples still living in the 21st Century? That's Jake's dilemma as he meets a man who talks of Jesus as if he had known him, and whose way of living challenges everything Jake had previously known. So You Don t Want to Go To Church Anymore is Jake s compelling journal that chronicles thirteen conversations with his newfound friend over a four-year period and how those exchanges turn Jake's world upside-down. With his help, Jake faces his darkest fears, struggles through brutal circumstances and comes out on the other side in the joy and freedom he always dreamed was possible. If you're tired of just going through the motions of Christianity and want to mine the depths of what it really means to live deeply in Christ, you ll find Jake s story will give you hope for your own. This book probes the difficult questions and offers some far-reaching answers. It just might turn your world upside-down as well!

I can see where this book could/can be very controversial. I, on the other hand liked it. Never have I bought in to the HUMAN requirements of Christianity & Church. This won't set well with the Church goers that think the "institution of church" is what you have to follow & believe to be living in God's Love. For those that have been disillusioned or hurt by that way of living, this is a vindicating read. God's LOVE is unconditional. Church love is not!

I fancy myself a Christian, a true believer of Jesus Christ, with endless faith in God and the belief that he loves me no matter what and that through him all things are possible. But, regardless of the fact that I enjoy Sunday service, I've always felt that church was "forced" on me and that I must go to be a good Christian. "So you don't want to go to church anymore" spoke to me about MY relationship with God, and made me look at my relationship and the love of God in a whole new light. I now ... Read More

Not so much an indictment of 'going to church' as a deep and insightful look at what fallen humanity manages to make of initially good ideas regarding community and fellowship. A unique approach is used here, with the storyteller sharing his growth of understanding as it occurred over 4 years of 'unscheduled' encounters with a man who speaks of Jesus with an intimate knowledge, as though he walked beside Him while on earth. Giving rise to speculation about whether THIS 'John' might be John the Disciple ... Read More
