Description
There's hardly anyone in the world more down-to-earth than Jesus. That sounds far-fetched because, well, Jesus is God. But read the Gospels and you find Jesus telling stories that ring true from beginning to end, stories you can immediately identify with, stories that make you go "hmmm."
In Down to Earth we learn that these stories are different from the stories we tell each other-these are stories intended to change your life. They're soul stories-stories that get inside you and linger there, stories you start to find yourself living into. And when you do, you and the world around you are transformed for good.
