Focusing on Jesus Jim Fowler

In three hundred sixty-six readings, Jim Fowler has written a daily thought for every day of the calendar year. These are not simple and inspirational devotional writings. They are packed with themes that have been part of Christian thought through the centuries. These daily thoughts deal with theological subjects, practical implications of how Christian character relates to everyday life, as well as to the social issues of our day. The title of the volume relates the overarching perspective of the readings - to expose the contrast between the usual emphases so common in religious teaching, and the focal point of legitimate Christian thought in the Person and work of Jesus Christ. Religion has too often majored in the minors, and failed to emphasize that Christianity is Christ. Not just the central issue, but the sole issue for Christian thought and practice is JESUS.
