Why Jesus?
Rediscovering His Truth in an Age of Mass Marketed Spirituality

By Ravi Zacharias (Faith Words)

“True spirituality is not a game we play. It is not merely a preference for some position over another. Nor is it at its core a search for some healing balm. It is an ultimate choice of ultimate definitions that require one’s utmost commitment. One had dare not make a commitment to a belief for secondary or tertiary reasons or to ‘feel good.’ The issues of gender and sexuality are extremely important. … I understand how important they are. But they are secondary to why we are living and for whom we are living. To be driven to adopt a combination of myth and mysticism because of blunders made by cultural exploiters in society is to run from the arms of a lion into the arms of a bear. There is little comfort in that.“ —Ravi Zacharias, from the book
