Secret Message of Jesus: Uncovering the Truth that Could Change Everything Audiobook

" A paradigm shifter, for sure. Gives the kingdom of here and now the attention that it deserves. The kind of attention that Jesus gave it. Must be pretty important then, huh? "

" Had a hard time getting into this. "

" Not exactly the easy read I was looking for before school. It is pretty good and I like a lot of his thinking, a bit to much what seems like rambling at times, but that could just be me wanting to finish it before the text books come. "

" I love McClaren, but I was really bored reading this. He says a lot of important things that should definitely be taken into consideration by Christians, but I just couldn't keep my mind on track with him. "

" One of my all-time favorite books about Jesus. I got done and then read it a second time. "

" The secret: The Kingdom is NOW. I love his insights one Jesus and Christianity. I love that he believes we should focus more on Jesus' messages than being exclusive. (Jesus wasn't-hello!) I am excited to read more of his work. "

" In my quest to better understand Church I found this book challenging, intriguing, and practical. I think I'm going to need to read it again, though! "

" Good, but a little more theological and a little less action oriented than some of his other works. Still a great read though. "

" If you can get past the sensationalistic title this is really a very compelling account of Jesus' teaching about the Kingdom of God. Not a heavy read by any means but gave me lots of food for thought. "

" A good book, but not as ground-breaking as "A New Kind of Christian" or as all-encompassing as "Everything Must Change." If you're reading McLaren and haven't yet read those, stop what you're doing and start reading them immediately. "

" Really, I'm just trying to see how this Facebook feature works. Also, good book. "

" Pretty good, but much I already knew and thought of. One thing that really stuck out to me though was his saying that everywhere Jesus went He called out and named the evil in circumstances. It struck a chord with what God has been teaching me of late... "

" very deep. it can get kind of repetitive and dry in spots but overall it is a great read for deep thinkers. "

" Somewhat interesting view on the life of Jesus. Overall good insight to the emerging church revolution. "

" Highly recommend this book. In it, McLaren takes the words of Jesus's Sermon on the Mount and applies them to our daily lives. Powerful work. In my opinion, this is McLaren's best work. "

" Really a great book. It helped me learn more about Jesus' teachings and how what he was teaching related to the early church, rather than how i interpret it based on life in the 21st century. "

" one of the first Christian books to give me real, tangible hope that the Jesus message includes more than just heaven after death (and that's big), but also a promise of deliverance from Earthly ills (i.e. "principalities"); audaciously hopeful and beautiful. "

" Its basic message was great! I won't tell you what it is because it is secret. It was very verbose, though. :/ "

" Probably one of the first books that got me thinking about "the least of these". caused me to look outside of my bubble and see the world through a different lens. "

" Liked the book; hated the title. "

" Another great book by Brian McLaren! "

" this book really surprised me both by making a lot of sense and by making me feel a lot less crummy about christianity as a whole. "

" Not as good as McLaren's trilogy. "

" This book was very eye opening. Makes the gospel meaningful to your everyday life "
