thefifthway
Looking at the Way of Jesus from an ancient Hebrew point of view and coming to a fuller understanding of the true meaning of Jesus' words as his first followers would have understood them is crucial to recreating the experience of the spiritual journey and breaking through limiting thought processes. Full of colorful stories, intimate journal entries, and the words of Jesus seen in light of the ancient Hebrew mindset, languages, worldview, culture, and historical setting, The Fifth Way is a window on a completely different way of approaching God and our spiritual journey--a Fifth Way. The Way of Jesus.
