Are you searching for something more than rituals, rules, or religious routines? Do you feel like you’re going through the motions, and wondering, “Is this it?” In our quest to find God, we often end up finding something else entirely: a system to be managed, rules to be followed, or a “club” to join. We’ve traded the most revolutionary relationship in history for a religious performance, and in the process, we’ve completely missed the point.
Whether you feel bound by a checklist of “do’s and don’ts,” or feel dry in the repetition of religious tradition, or simply disenchanted with the religious routines you’ve known, there is a better way!
More Than Religion invites you to discover a deep, authentic relationship with God that transcends the boundaries of religiosity. In this thought-provoking book, Sam Snyder explores how Jesus brought a revolution, not a religion, designed to free us from restrictive mindsets and connect us with God.
Through a series of powerful contrasts, you’ll discover how Jesus’ message offers a path to a relationship that is dynamic, not static. Whether you identify as “spiritual but not religious” or you are a person of devout faith, this book is your guide to a genuine, transformative connection with God that goes beyond religiosity.
