It's incredible, but the modern church has largely suceeded in domesticating Jesus . We have swapped a God-glorifying gospel for a lesser gospel where I is the central character. This is appalling (but so commonplace, it rarely warrants comment). Harry s honest, fresh, and involving journey of self-discovery helps you understand how his, and your, compromises have led to a down-grading of Jesus role in our lives. Do you want Jesus to be more alive to you than ever before? Don't domesticate him, set him free to live in the center of your life.
“I can hear your protests,' says author Harry Kraus, “Jesus Christ cannot be domesticated!'
“I'm talking about the way I make myself big. And in the process, I've domesticated the Almighty. That sickens me. Shocks me. And it should. I've domesticated the Lord of the universe.'
All of us try to domesticate Jesus, too-in little things like doubt, anxiety, or fear about the future. We domesticate him in the way we think about him-letting him into our lives, but only so far, until our control is threatened.
Harry Kraus takes a hard-hitting, soul-searching look at this atrocity that we commit every day—all with the goal of exalting Jesus, finding him as the grand treasure that he is, and challenging all of us to see him more and more in our lives.
'Domesticated Jesus forces us to take a good look at the limits we have placed on God and in turn reflect on the fullness of his awesome power.' -- Francis Chan
