Synopsis

In About You, Dick Staub again addresses a general audience of Christians (lapsed and active), seekers, and younger readers and speaks about the personal rewards and benefits of following Jesus. This book illuminates the path back to humanness. It shows that Jesus came to address our universal longing for a fully human life, not to establish a narrow us versus them religion. Salvation is not about going to heaven when we die, it is about a full and abundant life now. It will connect contemporary longing with an ancient and largely lost truth, that "Jesus didn't come to make us Christian, he came to make us fully human." In practical, down to earth, easy-to understand language, it will deal with the subject theologically (the incarnation), sociologically (our deepest human needs) and practically (how we can attain and maintain such a life).
