He Gets Us
Experiencing the confounding love, forgiveness, and relevance of Jesus
About this book
Jesus understands our lives because he was human too. He faced the same hardships and personal struggles that we encounter on a daily basis. He felt our deepest sadness and experienced our darkest solitude. Above all, Jesus gets us.
In Jesus' time, communities were deeply divided by bitter differences in religious beliefs, political positions, income inequality, legal status, and ethnic differences. But where was Jesus in all of this? Did he align with the religious elites? Or did he start an uprising to overthrow them? Neither of the above.
Instead, he went from town to town, offering hope, new life, and modeling a different way to live and to change the world. Instead of pursuing power, money, or religious authority, he shared a loving and sacrificially generous way of living--he championed a better way. But how can we understand the Jesus of the Bible today?
Inside the pages of He Gets Us, you'll find 14 of the most frequently asked questions about Jesus, including:
- Was Jesus ever stressed?
- Was Jesus ever lonely?
- Did Jesus ever mourn?
- Did Jesus have fun?
- How did Jesus deal with injustice?
- Was Jesus fed up with politics?
Each chapter includes an FAQ, detailed responses from contributors of He Gets Us and selected writings from New York Times bestselling author Max Lucado, a QR code that takes you to a profound video that you can watch and share with others, and timeless Scripture verses.
