The Sacred Awakening
Reclaiming Christ Consciousness
What if Jesus didn’t start a religion, but sparked a revolution of consciousness? The Sacred Awakening invites us to embody Christ’s radical path—not worship him. Through history, scripture, and lived experience, Sami Awad reveals a hidden power of love and presence that can heal, transform, and awaken our true humanity.
"The Sacred Awakening is courageous, provocative, and deeply needed—a revolutionary guide to the path Jesus actually walked. I can’t think of a book about Jesus that I resonate with more."
Brian D. McLaren, Author of Do I Stay Christian?
"The Sacred Awakening offers embodied hope. Walking alongside Sami’s journey, we see that radical love is not only possible, it’s alive. This book is truly an inspirational awakening."
John Paul Lederach, Professor Emeritus, University of Notre Dame
"Sami unpacks Jesus' nonviolent message through the a rigorous journey based on a willingness to change everything within and beyond, lovingly confronting our paradigms and calling for collective liberation through love and truth. There's no going back after this book."

"The Sacred Awakening" by Sami Awad is a remarkable and thought-provoking read. In this book, the author shares his personal journey of moving from traditional faith to a deeper awakening. The more he immersed himself in the Gospels, the more he perceived a striking difference between the Jesus he encountered in scripture and the one he was taught to worship. In search of truth, Sami stepped beyond the boundaries of Christianity and experienced Christ Consciousness.
Awakening, as he describes, is a return to the original invitation: to live from love rather than fear, to see one another beyond division, and to participate in healing the world through radical compassion.
This work also invites readers to rediscover the Sacred language. Sami presents The Lord’s Prayer as a Daily Beatitude Practice, offering a way to align daily with the consciousness of the Kingdom. The call to move from fear into love is extended to all who are willing to step into the unknown with faith in the Kingdom.
It is a truly distinctive book—one I am deeply grateful for. A powerful guide to awakening our true humanity. Go ahead with it without any second thoughts.
