My book
(Watch Trailer)
Dear Friends,
I appeal to any and all who like their thoughts stimulated through the written word.
My book is a Non-Fiction Christian Work. However it is not your dry, overly preachy, run of the mill – shove my doctrine down your throat type of offering. Yes it does use scripture and Biblical principles but they’re presented in a common sense manner, with inspiration and motivation being the thrust. The subject is love… a topic that seems difficult to define – as well as understand. It’s also a topic that we can all say was important to Jesus… Very Important.

“The Jesus Command”
Takes a serious look at Jesus’ statement to the eleven disciples, the night he was taken into captivity. It’s an attempt to capture the importance of His reasoning. Christ spent a lot of time speaking matter of factually about love, and on that last night He rapped the term in imperial clothing, making it a command. The implication was that it would be the determining factor of discipleship.

John 13:34-35
“Love one another; as I have loved you…
By this shall all men know that you are my disciples…”
There is a difference between believing in Christ and following Him, and the latter has love stamped all over it. This discussion attempts to develop the aspects of love through the eyes of Jesus and the understanding of those initially charged with continuing the pattern that He put forth… His Disciples. No matter what we think we know about love, we must ask this simple question…
“How did Jesus use the term and what did He intend for us to understand about it?”
I invite your honest opinion and feedback. Although I’m a minister, this work is not expressly for Christians alone. Non-Christians may find some reasons to question their pattern of behavior in matters of love as well.
“Well done, thou good and faithful servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things,…”
(Matt. 25)
I’ve heard many, who, when quoting this passage, all seem to stop at the “Well done” part, without making mention of the fact that the servant has faithfully carried out a task to the Masters delight. Just how much of our Christian walk is in line, faithfully, with the Masters liking? Are we doing all we can to live out the command of Jesus, or are we busy making excuses as we push our service further on the back burner.
“The Jesus Command”
Is a close examination of Christ’s charge to love one another as He has loved us. It takes into account His point of view and what would be expected of anyone who would be called His Disciple. A word of caution… there may be a few hard bits to swallow.
John 6:60, 66 (KJV)
Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it? From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.
The New Testament is full of instruction of how we are to regard one another. This study is a discussion of those instructions and how they can be used as a guide. They form the pattern of our attempt to better understand this “The Jesus Command” and the qualities necessary for Christ following.
