Customer Reviews for Paraclete Press The Jesus Creed: Book and Guide

Many of us have memorized the Great Commandment. However, tragically, quite few of us have learned how to live by it. In "The Jesus Creed" Scot McKnight explores how Jesus connected the ancient Jewish commandments to "love the Lord your God with all our heart, soul and strength" and to "love your neighbor as yourself" in order to create a creed that transforms his disciples' lives. If you are passionate about discipleship and love the writings of John Ortberg, Dallas Willard and Richard Foster, you will treasure "The Jesus Creed" by Scot McKnight. 256 pages, softcover from Paraclete.
