Publisher's summary

What if God Is Better Than You Imagined?

Do you find yourself doubting God and weary of religion? Are you tired of the confusing answers, the hypocrisy, and the feeling that God isn’t enough? If so, you’re not alone.

Like many believers, author and pastor Zach Maldonado experienced the same disappointment with Christianity. He asked questions - about God, about Jesus, about himself - that he didn’t have answers for. Yet, despite all this, something sparked his passion for Jesus and compelled him to devote his life to sharing a simple message.

This message is not dead theology. It’s not rule-keeping or a pep talk to be more radical. Instead, it’s an invitation to a relationship that’s free from to-do lists, shame, and legalism.

Jesus Is Better offers answers to the most difficult questions about Christianity, as well as hope for the weary believer, the distant skeptic, and those who desire to leave religion behind and embrace the God who not only loves them without condition, but actually likes and enjoys who they are. Through it, you’ll rediscover Jesus in a fresh new way that will completely change your life.

An excellent reminder

This book is an exceptionally relatable point of view, especially I would say for teens through early thirty-somethings. A reminder that bondage and weight that we feel in our walk with Christ is not from Him. It comes from rules and expectations that we have added to our relationship with Him, and those are not founded in truth.

Weight lifted

This book clears up the idea that religion and spirituality does not have to be based on fear, but on love, I can definitely relate to this book! Loved it, everyone should give it a listen.

Loved it! A second listen is in order!

So beautifully done! This author introduces the REAL Jesus in a powerful and clear way in which all audiences can grasp. I highly recommend this excellent piece! He doesn’t stray from difficult questions and compassionately offers an intriguing perspective in which to face life’s challenges. This one is sure to make you think and rethink in a way that will likely bring a lasting impact. He also narrated it himself and did a lovely job. This is one I intend to pass along to anyone who may be the slightest bit interested.

Offers hope and encouragement

There is no doubt that Jesus Is Better tackles some of the more difficult questions facing Christianity today. Better yet, it offers hope and encouragment for those flagging in their doubt or uncertain about the importance of their religion. If you are going through a difficult patch in your belief in God, then I encourage you to try this book out. I felt mighty encouraged by it.

Re-assuring in so many ways

I related to this book so much. Like the author, I had a number of doubts about my Christian faith. I almost gave up on it like Zach Maldonado. While I may not have the new conviction the author has, I was quite blown away by the way he explains things and how it has lead me again to think about my view of Jesus. My thanks to the author for sharing this book with us.

Lovely narration

I enjoyed the way this book was narrated. A voice that is easy to listen to, and well paced. I'm attending, for the first time in 5 years, church services again, and this book drew me in. For anyone wanting to learn more about Jesus and how the Christian faith can help find purpose in your life, this is a must read.
