Why Aren't Christians Representing Christ Anymore?
Read about the Capitalist Christian and understand the truth surrounding Christianity in America.
Online, September 24, 2009 (Newswire.com) - New book is demystifying the truth of the Bible and helping believers find their way around the propaganda surrounding religion and back to the simplicity of God's love.
In an age where religion and politics are one and the same and modern churches have stepped aside from the simplicity of God's message, where can believers go for the truth about finding salvation in Christ? These are the questions that author Sophia White introduces in her new novel "Jesus is for Everybody."
"This book is about life, not religion," says White. "This book is about developing a personal relationship with God in terms of everyday life." and "Jesus is for Everybody" helps Christians get to the heart of the matter and takes politics out of faith.
The Bible tells us that in the last days we will see even the churches turning aside from Christ. Today's church is not judged by the quality of its message but by the quality of the entertainment it offers. To strictly adhere to the policies set forth by Christ is to be viewed as a staunch, right wing Republican.
When did religion become political? When did people start turning away from the simplicity of God's message and complicating it with their own interpretation to match their own purpose, and when did churches began focusing on fundraising rather than fellowship?
"Jesus is for Everybody" contains over 3000 scriptures organized in 15 Chapters outlined on her website www.jesusisforeverybody.org. White indicates "People are seriously debating about what Jesus would say today so I hope the facts illustrated will spark a more insightful discussion during a critical time."
In today's society it seems like we have everybody telling us what's right and what's wrong. The Christian religion has become an expression not of a relationship with God but of a right wing political standpoint. Author Sophia White takes religion out of the courtroom and puts it back where it belongs-in the hearts of Americans everywhere-with her new book "Jesus is for Everybody."
In "Jesus is for Everybody" Sophia explores the science behind the scriptures, breaking concepts down into simple, everyday applications that make sense for people of every walk of life and reminds people that religion is meant to be built on a deep, personal relationship with God.
There are thousands of Christians floundering because they are so busy trying to be Christians that they've forgotten who their father is. Sophia revitalizes that love with an exploration of the scriptures of the Bible and the intimate relationship we were meant to have with God in "Jesus is for Everybody."
The name "Sophia" is derived from σοφία, the Greek word for wisdom. Author Sophia White has made it her goal to share the divine wisdom and inspiration that God has shared with her with the entire world to revitalize the Christian community in the love and mercy of God.
When she's not writing Sophia works as an Information Technology Auditor in Washington D.C. To reach author Sophia White call 202.679.3777 or email sophia@JesusisforEverybody.org.
READER'S REVIEW
Connect to God
By Mick (Wisconsin)
This book is easy to read and understand. I have had many questions unanswered regarding Jesus and God. Jesus is for Everyone is laid out nicely in the chapters so you can find what you want to learn about first or if you need to go back to refer to something.
By reading this I feel I have a better understanding of God and a real relationship with God. I feel better about myself and I have a sense of peace with all of the understanding I have gained. The author, Sophia White, did an excellent job writing this as anyone who can help to change a person's life (or people) is phenomenal.
Wonderful Book for Singles, Couples & Families
By Cassie Mae (USA)
Jesus is for Everybody is very interesting and informative. I went to church sparingly as a child. This book really helped me to understand Jesus and the Bible. I love that the author gave out an awesome website. I will be a frequent visitor to that website. My husband and I want our children to learn more about Jesus Christ and this website along with our church will help to teach them. I will also refer back to this magnificent book. Many times our children ask us questions about Jesus and God and we do not have the answer. Both of these will help us immensely and they can help you, too.
I highly recommend this book so you can build a relationship with God for all single people, couples and those with families.
