Why Jesus? For some his name is a swear–word. For others his cross is a fashion accessory or a lucky charm. For many Jesus Christ is considered irrelevant in a world that has ‘moved on’. Contemporary attitudes reveal much indifference and ignorance towards him. Why Jesus? challenges that consensus. To trust and follow Jesus still makes perfect sense. Take a fresh look at the one who claimed to be the Son of God and Saviour of sinners.

I gasped at the illustration at the start of chapter 1 and laughed out loud at the one at the start of chapter 2 - these things very seldom happen. The start of chapter 3 was just plain humbling. I heartily commend this book which unashamedly speaks so powerfully to the mind and heart of Jesus Christ.

I first read Geoff's book on a flight to London. On arrival I gave it to a stranger urging them that reading it could change their life. By the end of the week I was already planning orders of the book for our evangelism training programme and café church. Geoff has condensed the essentials into a brilliantly compact book that is easy to read and designed to change lives. I recommend you buy at least two copies, one to underline and keep for future reference and one to give away.

This book flows from the heart of a creative pastor/evangelist. In Why Jesus? Geoff McIlrath engages with his readers in a clear and down-to-earth way. He persuades us to take a fresh look at why faith in Jesus is so important. This is a book you will want to read and discuss with others.

We have found Why Jesus? most useful in our prison ministry. It is clear, convincing and very helpful to our inmates. We are grateful for the availability of this resource.
