Description: The main thrust of this book is an elaboration on the love and joy contained in the message of Christ as proclaimed to us in the Gospels, a message which the author characterizes as extremely simple: "An old era is done. God is intervening to begin a new age of incredible generosity...great is the payoff..." And it has been the very simplicity of Jesus' message that has been ignored by theologians and scholars through the ages.
