Join New York Times bestselling author Jefferson Bethke as he tears back the worn canvas of religion, lets an unsalvageable, phony frame of distractions fall away, and unfolds for the reader the breathtaking meaning and worth of the Christian faith.

We're all searching for our greater purpose in life, but society pushes cheap, false narratives instead: your worth is measured by your success, winning brings happiness, put yourself first. But Bethke tells us that when we buy into those empty promises, we don't realize that the picture of life we've been sold is incomplete. We were made for so much more.

A continuation of his bestseller It's Not What You Think, Bethke invites us to find our true purpose by seeing Jesus in a new light, taking us on a journey from the creation of the universe in Genesis to the great feast of celebration in Revelation. Along the way, Bethke gives us the tools we need to:

  • Reflect on our role in God's story
  • Embrace faith as a blend of mystery, truth, grace, and beauty
  • Discover the blessings of rest, worship, and fellowship
  • Reexamining Christianity from the very beginning as revealed in the Bible, Bethke discovers a story far more beautiful, compelling, and fulfilling than we could ever imagine.

        Bethke (Jesus> Religion) rose to fame with a Youtube video titled "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus" and has never looked back. In his most recent book, a take on the New Testament and the message of Jesus, Bethke recounts a number of episodes and parables; these are interspersed with the author's own experiences. He doesn't pretend to have scholarly knowledge yet is motivated by a sincere faith and writes with vivacity. VERDICT Bethke's informal charm and bright-eyed devotion is certain to please his loyal enthusiasts and will perhaps attract more believers.
