Publisher's summary

Judah Smith digs deep to answer the most common and the most difficult questions about Jesus, a man so few understand and so many desperately need.

In Jesus Is, Judah Smith explores a number of topics that reveal Jesus' purpose for coming, what he accomplished while he was here, and what that means for those of us who came after. Jesus is greatly revered, harshly criticized, and sorely misunderstood.

Judah breaks down who Jesus is and explains to listeners how understanding that more fully will not only enrich their lives, but also give meaning to them and save them.

Jesus Is gives listeners the intimate knowledge that makes for a deeper, lasting relationship with Jesus, allowing them to commune with and grow in him. Judah wants listeners to know that Jesus is more than a good teacher, more than an inspiring leader. He is the point of all life.

This book is for EVERYBODY!

Where does Jesus Is rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

This is one of the best books I have.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Jesus Is?

"That’s the gospel. It’s good news for everyone. It’s not good news just for people who are already good, for those who are self-controlled and disciplined enough to have all their ducks in a row. It’s good news for the people who can’t even find their ducks. They haven’t seen some of their ducks in years. Their lives are a mess. But they can come to Jesus and find instant acceptance. They belong long before they believe and long before they behave.”

What about Judah Smith’s performance did you like?

He is funny and real.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

BOTH!

5 hearts review

Listened to the entire book in 2 days driving back and forth to work. This one settled well with my soul. I am glad I bought it so I can listen to it again! Sometimes I get a little too uptight about God and after reading this my perspective shifted and my heart lightened up a lot. ❤❤❤❤❤

Heart touching

Judah has a way of making you understand that Jesus's love for us is inescapable, sufficient and deeply personal. Who wouldn't want to be part of that relationship? I listened to this book on Audible and Judah was the narrator as well as the author. You can hear his love for Jesus, his relationship with Jesus, his earnest desire for the reader to experience the same, unmistakably in his voice! Judah is down to earth and funny; he also comes from love rather than judgment. I HIGHLY recommend this book!

Basically, A Fun Sermon!

If you could sum up Jesus Is in three words, what would they be?

funny, thoughtful, inclusive

Would you recommend Jesus Is to your friends? Why or why not?

Totally, I would particularly recommend it to my friends who are more conservative theologically. Judah has a lot to say about the goodness of God.

Great reminder of GODs love

This book reminds us that we are saved not by our acts but because Jesus loves us and nothing we can do to separate us from that love. He loves because he is love and he sees who we truly are beyond our shortcomings.

Judah is amazing

Judah never fails to make me fall more in more in love with Jesus based on how he describes His love for us. Between the hilarious commentary Judah gives, to his love of Jesus, this a book I continue to pick up for a good read.
