Why I’m a better pastor for you than… / Consider your attitude to the local church / Orthodoxy is a friend of the young / Lord’s Supper is not a pot luck / Kindle deals / and more. It can’t be denied: The Jesus of Sarah Young sounds suspiciously like a twenty-first century, Western, middle-aged woman. Today’s blog is sponsored by the D3 Youth Conference, March 8-9, 2024 at Boyce College in Louisville, KY. We supply a fantastic range of beautiful, practical and contemporary Christian themed gifts for women, men and children, including jewellery, stationery, art, home decor and prayer and devotional items.Her words have resonated with people from all walks of life, and the global impact of her work is unparalleled. The Jesus of Sarah Young sounds suspiciously like a twenty-first century, Western, middle-aged woman. So with pen in hand, she embarked on a journey that forever changed her—and many others around the world.

Young was a member of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), where her husband Stephen is an ordained minister and third-generation Christian missionary to Japan.The publishing team at Thomas Nelson celebrates the tremendous impact of her message, which will continue to encourage generations of readers to approach God confidently and joyfully. Nowhere in Scripture do we find Jesus (or his Father) speaking like this: “When your Joy in Me meets My Joy in you, there are fireworks of heavenly ecstasy. Listen as you read with full access to companion audiobooks – including Jesus Listens, Jesus Always, and more! In those few sentences she sets up unnecessary competition between her revelation and what we are told of the Bible in 2 Timothy 3:16-17: “All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.

Publisher Thomas Nelson removed references to automatic writing from the book's introduction and claims the book contains Young's own thoughts and inspirations.There is no way to avoid her claim that she is communicating divine revelation, a claim that raises a host of questions and concerns, not the least of which is the doctrine of Scripture alone which assures us that the Bible and the Bible alone is sufficient to guide us in all matters of faith and practice. When the path before you is dotted with difficulties, beware of measuring your strength against those challenges. In the end, there is no substantial difference in how Young expects us to view Jesus’ words to her, than how we are to view the Bible. I mean, Jesus’ words to Sarah are literally packaged into a devotional, so that we can do our devotionals from them every day.

Words that make you increasingly aware of God's presence, allowing you to bask in His peace, His joy, and His everlasting love.Legacy users will keep all content purchased prior to the change in December 2023 and can access it without a subscription. I’ve been blogging daily since 2003 and have written several books, including Seasons of Sorrow: The Pain of Loss and the Comfort of God. If this is, indeed, Jesus speaking, we need to explain why he sounds so markedly different from the Jesus of the gospels or the Jesus of the book of Revelation. Far and away the most troubling aspect of the book is its very premise—that Sarah Young hears from Jesus and then dutifully brings his messages to her readers.
