More than 3 billion people claim to follow Jesus. But aside from a few verses, how many actually know what he taught? In fact, much of what people think Jesus taught, he never said. In this six-week study, pastor and best-selling author Adam Hamilton explores six of the most important themes in Jesus' teachings, why they matter, and how they speak to us today. The book will explore Jesus' message of repentance, the sermon on the mount, the parables, the I am sayings in John, and more. Jesus' message is not only life-changing, but world-changing. Join Adam Hamilton in studying The Message of Words That Changed the World. Other components for the study include a leader guide, and teaching video are available.
