Jesus: A Gospel of Love is a beautiful doorway into the teachings of Jesus. I love the teachings of Jesus however I must admit, a lot of the teachings from the Bible go over my head due to the archaic language and heavy use of metaphor. But in this book David Hoffmeister provides such clarity on the teachings of Jesus in a way that is up to date with what we face in the modern world.
The most valuable thing I find about this book is that it really helps you grasp the deep spiritual teachings of Jesus in a way that you can practically apply them, whether you are Christian or not. These beautiful teachings will take you deeper into your practice and your relationship with the Spirit.
I absolutely love this book and its teachings. I love how David goes into the depth of the teachings and explain it in a way that is easy to understand and not confuse the message Jesus wanted out. I love to be taken by the hand and gently being guided through Jesus deep teachings in a way that resonates and I can easier grasp them.

I will go back to it again and again to be with God, the truth and use the book for gentle meditations for my mind.
From the first time I heard David's teachings, they resonated deeply in my heart. His pure, clear and uncompromising message of Truth has been of immeasurable value on my path to Awakening. I appreciate the interpretation David offers in this book, as it provides a clearer, deeper and more accessible understanding of Bible verses that were not easy for me to comprehend.

I’ve been studying and practicing the principles from A Course in Miracles for nearly 10 years, yet I’ve always been curious about the Bible and how its teachings relate to what I love about ACIM. This book bridges the gap between A Course in Miracles and the Bible, providing helpful insights and a deep truth that really rings true in my heart. Its content is highly transformative and I've learned that when I really follow what it says, I can experience miracles. This is a book to digest slowly and fully embody, so that the teachings become a living experience!
This book is a real gem. It helps me to appreciate the teachings of Jesus in the Bible in an even deeper way. The way David Hoffmeister writes adds an immensely valuable layer to it that makes the teachings come to life in a profound way, bridging the gap of 2000 years and adding an experiential taste to it. Very practical and profound.
David Hoffmeister's teachings have always been love of the highest caliber. His interpretations of Jesus's teachings aim for the highest high while being extremely practical, consistently facilitating the love in our mind!
Don't take my world away from me. That's the ego's great claim. The belief in sacrifice. Don't take what little I have. This book reveals the ego's game. And offers a gentle way out of that painful game and into the joyful reality of Spirit.
Wow, just an amazing interpretation of the Gospels of the Bible, it really helped to read this. David brings out a much more profound depth of the teachings of the Gospels that I have never heard before. Absolutely amazing content here.
Wow! This book is truly a gift for the soul 💝 It helps to not only grasp the deeper meaning of the Gospels but also shows how to implement these teachings in daily life. Thank you, David, for your clarity and guidance! 🙏🏽💗🕊
This excellent book is a must-read for every student of a Course in Miracles. It will help you unwind from ego and experience the Atonement in a true awakening.
I love the combination of David's and the Bible's stories. It makes my understanding of the Bible so much more clear. And so much easier for practical application.
This book is helping to bring me into the direct experiences of the miraculous mind that Jesus is inviting us into. David brings in Jesus's teachings from the Bible and parallels them with his own miraculous life and parables of devotion—to pray, listen, and follow. There is a plan for us all, and Jesus offers that guidance to us now.
David shares parable after parable, miracle after miracle that we have a divine spiritual guide within us, it’s not exclusive and only for “some,” yet we are together all trying to go home, we all want peace deep down and we can let go of our narrow perception of what the world is for.
I feel this book will be a reference guide for hope and for inspiration for many who are drawn to an inner life of devotion and prayer.
