We often get in the way of the simplest message. Instead of just telling people about Jesus, we launch into complex explanations of why Jesus is the good news and what we must do in order to experience Him. In his book, “Flesh”, author Hugh Halter puts it in very understandable terms: “Jesus is the good news that most of us are starving for. It’s just that He has been hijacked by rules and structures and humans afraid of grace.” We’ve made it a difficult thing to understand that Jesus is the good news. His love, His grace, His desire to be with us is all we really need to understand.
