In Chapter 4 of the Book of Andrew, we find the Apostles James, John, Philip, and even Simon meeting Jesus for the first time. We also learn why Jesus teaches in parables and what he really thinks of the Sabbath.
In Chapter 3 of the Book of Andrew, we witness the Apostle Andrew meet Jesus for the first time and learn what Jesus really meant when he said "you must be born again." It's much different than you might think. And, we realize that Jesus was more loving and accepting of us and all our human trials than we could ever possibly imagine.
Exploring Jesus' message of love and hope beyond Biblical sources, we start with a reading from Chapter 1 of the Book of Andrew (a book about the life of the Apostle Andrew, Jesus' first disciple).

About Mystical Jesus
From the publisher's feed
Since Jesus' death and resurrection, the church has edited, misinterpreted and distorted Jesus’ original teachings on love and compassion. It is clear from the New Testament, that Jesus had only two…
commandments: 1) that we should love the Lord thy God with all our heart, and with all our soul, and all our mind; and 2) that we should love our neighbor as ourselves. And, yet, much of the Gospels have been interpreted to mean just the opposite. If Jesus truly thought that love should be the very ground of every human action, His love would never call to exclude anyone from God's kingdom for any reason.The Mystical Jesus podcast aims to discuss Jesus' message of love and compassion via non-canonical sources.
