by Adrian Plass
EPUB
Description
Evocative reflections on three facets in our relationship with Jesus.People long for reality in their walk with Christ.
To know him better, we must understand the different sides of his complex nature.
Popular British author Adrian Plass draws on biblical stories and personal experience-as well as his keen understanding of people's needs-as he explores the Safe Jesus, the Tender Jesus, and the Extreme Jesus.
God has told us that he holds us in the palm of his hands, where no one and nothing can harm the most important part of us.
But from biblical times to the present day, Christians encounter accidents and disasters.
What does it really mean to experience the Safe Jesus?
Jesus tells his disciples that they must love one another.
Yet time and again we try to find achievement and success through our own efforts and individual gifts, only to end in failure.
Instead, we need to know the Tender Jesus who becomes visible when we join with each other in the body of Christ.
Jesus only did what he saw his father doing. Each of his actions and encounters were fueled, informed, and instructed by the dynamic, creative, unpredictable Spirit of God.
Failing to be obedient in this way is what truly constitutes sin.
When we are open to the genuine leading of the Spirit, we will experience the Extreme Jesus.
In Jesus - Safe, Tender, Extreme, Adrian Plass is "simply a man with a broom, sweeping away the rubbish that prevents others from passing further in and further up, by talking about what Jesus does and doesn't do in my life."
