Just Love: How One Mistranslated Word Distorted the Gospel

This Changes Everything

What happened to the Gospel that made Christians more focused on managing sin, performing religious deeds, and trying to reach heaven rather than exploring a love so vast it would transform them with joy?

One simple word, mistranslated in our English Scriptures, has distorted our understanding of God's purpose throughout history and has robbed the Gospel of its power to transform us from within and reveal His glory to the world.

Let coauthors Wayne Jacobsen and Tobie van der Westhuizen show you how this shift happened and why restoring the word Jesus used reconnects our salvation with his unfolding kingdom.

No doubt, it will change you in ways you can't imagine. It might even alter the course of Christianity.

WAYNE JACOBSEN has traveled the world helping people embrace a relationship with God deeply rooted in his affection for them. His numerous books include He Loves Me, So You Don't Want to Go to Church Anymore, and A Language of Healing for a Polarized Nation, and was coauthor of The Shack. A former pastor, Wayne hosts Lifestream.org, which provides resources for spiritual growth, and a podcast at TheGodJourney.com.

Bible teacher, educator, and learning designer from South Africa, holds a PhD in Higher Education and has spent decades teaching, writing, and communicating complex ideas with clarity and imagination. He is the owner and principal of Ridgefield Academy and blogs at JusticeofGod.com.
