In the final message of The Jesus Road, we examine Jesus’ claim to be ‘the Life.’ Eternal life is not just the reward of heaven but also the present reality of knowing God through Jesus Christ. This life starts now, develops as our desires are reshaped to love what Jesus loves, and lasts forever through the hope of resurrection. At the heart of this Life is a great exchange—dying to our old selves so that the risen Christ can live in us.
