Receiving Jesus by Mariann Edgar Budde

Mariann Edgar Budde shares her thoughts on how the reader can come to know and receive Jesus more deeply in practicing the Way of Love. She shares biblical stories, wisdom from the Christian tradition, and her own personal stories of spiritual growth.

"If you are a long-time church-goer, eager for your faith to really come
alive, a spiritual seeker who has never really felt connected to a faith
community, or if you once were part of a church but have dropped out,
here is a book that will help you find what matters most in the
spiritual lifeIt's beautiful, personal, simple, practical, and
understandable, and on top of that, it's honest, deep, and true. I've
been looking for a book like this for years. I will recommend it every
chance I get." —Brian D. McLaren, author of The Great Spiritual Migration

"Life is a spiritual adventure. Receiving Jesus: The Way of Love is a beautiful and harmoniously colorful piece of tapestry. Bishop Mariann brings different threads together to help the reader journey in search of, connecting with, or rekindling their own spiritual self. Each spiritual practice is a door that invites the reader to step into to a different space of self-discovery in the love of Jesus. What a wonderful adventure! Join her, yes… you are invited!" —The Rev. Canon Jesús Reyes, Episcopal Diocese of El Camino Real

"Receiving Jesus is a beautifully written, simple yet deeply profound guide to the spiritual life. I was inspired, moved, challenged, and refreshed by its words. I highly recommend this book."
—Adam Hamilton, author of The Walk: Five Essential Practices for the Christian Spiritual Life
