No one comes to the Father except through me\" (John 14:6). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Unfortunately, we live in a world that values personal feelings and desires \u003ci\u003emore\u003c\/i\u003e than objective truth. We've even changed our vernacular to accommodate our self-centeredness and ever-evolving relationship with the truth by calling it \"my truth,\" as though truth changes depending on the person claiming to know it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But when it comes to following Jesus--the One who called Himself the Truth--we don't get to curate our beliefs about who He is or what He taught based on what we're comfortable with. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eThe Chosen - Book Five\u003c\/i\u003e, you'll be challenged to surrender to the harder teachings of Jesus. Together, may we endure His words with ears that hear. May we be soberminded. And may we hold fast to the Truth, no matter how unpopular His teachings have become. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmanda Jenkins is an author, speaker, and mother of four.
