Think Like Jesus, Paperback

You can make better decisions to guide every facet of your life!

If you are like most Christians today, nobody has ever taught you how to develop a Scripture-based view of life and how to live consistently with that perspective. This book – the result of years of research and the author’s own personal journey – presents a step-by-step program for making every choice consistent with God’s principles and commands. It shows you how to ask, and answer, What would Jesus do if He were in my shoes right now?

George Barna looks at Jesus’ life and uncovers seven characteristics of His worldview that define what would Jesus believed and how He acted. The author points out that while there are benefits from thinking and acting this way, such as wise decision-making, relational advantages, and spiritual health, we emulate Jesus because it is the right thing to do, not because of the positive outcomes. And these benefits are not received unless we are totally committed to seeking, knowing, and following God’s wisdom.

“But the real benefit of thinking like Jesus,” the author says, “is that it applies to everything.” Barna believes that whether the issue is cloning, divorce, vocation, voting, media content, relationships, or family issues – it doesn’t matter ; it’s all covered when you start thinking His way.

If imitation is indeed the sincerest form of flattery, what better way is there to express your love for God than to commit yourself to thinking like Jesus?
