Summary
This new series begins a remarkable journey into the core ideas and practices of John's new book, Experience Jesus. Really. In Part 1, John shares why he felt compelled to write this vital message of refuge, strength, and wonder. He also reads extended passages from two chapters, revealing how we're all Disciples of the Internet, what it means to be an "ordinary mystic," and why we need to turn from distractions and toward Jesus.
Show Notes: Experience Jesus. Really. will be released on March 4, 2025, but you can pre-order the book and audiobook now at Amazon.com.
