Netgalley and Intervarsity Press have provided me with a copy of What Jesus Intended for review:



Do you feel as though you are losing your footing in church? Has the church lost its footing? An endless string of scandals within the walls of a place meant to offer compassion and safety has left many of us feeling unsteady, disoriented, even crushed. Others feel compelled to withdraw or distance themselves from the church. However, our instincts tell us this is not what Jesus intended for his followers. What did he intend? 



In his four decades of ministry, Anglican bishop Todd Hunter has experienced betrayal and pain. Despite all that, he remains hopeful. His belief in Jesus is stronger than ever, and he believes that Jesus has plans for his followers. 



Hunter describes a way to emerge from the ruins of bad religion and rebuild faith among a community of sincere believers in What Jesus Intended. Through unpacking Jesus' purposes, we can expose twisted, toxic religion for what it is and embrace the gospel's true aims. Experience the healing and goodness we've always longed for through Jesus.




I give What Jesus Intended five out of five stars!



Happy Reading!
