What is the point of this conversation?


Jesus is the most controversial figure the world has ever known. In the day of Jesus you either hated him, loved him, but you certainly could not ignore him. Nothing has changed as I sit and write these words. Jesus has made the cover of every magazine cover, been on TV, had movies made about him (some good, some bad, i.e. British accents anyone), used as a curse word, and I could go on and on. If Jesus could have this much press in a so-called "godless" world it would seem wise to figure out the significance of his life and find out whether it should affect our own.

This blog is to keep the conversation going about the life of Jesus and why it matters. The goal is to get all of us, including myself, to learn, wrestle, ask good questions, and hopefully see Jesus afresh in our generation. We might be surprised of what we find. Enjoy, share, encourage, and let's see what happens...
