Why Jesus? is a short, honest guide to understanding the Christian story without pressure, sermons, or religious jargon. It offers a clear path through the questions so many are asking about faith, identity, hope, and what it means to be human.
What You’ll Discover Inside• Why every human heart feels that persistent ache for purpose and belonging.
• How the Bible forms one connected narrative from creation to redemption.
• Who Jesus is beyond clichés, assumptions, or childhood impressions.
• What happened on the cross and why it still matters for ordinary people today.
• How salvation is not about performance or religion but about relationship and grace.
For Seekers, Skeptics, and the Spiritually CuriousIf you’re exploring Christianity, rebuilding faith after disappointment, or trying to understand what you believe, this book gives you a simple and honest place to begin. It explains sin, forgiveness, redemption, and grace in everyday language that makes the whole story clear.
Even long-time Christians will find fresh clarity and a helpful way to share the message of Jesus with others who have questions.
A Clear Story with a Real DestinationFrom the opening chapter about the ache we all feel to the final invitation, this book walks step by step through the Christian the world as it was meant to be, what fractured, why we still feel it, and the rescue offered in Jesus.

A very good book that I very much enjoyed. When I typically read books on this topic, they are most likely going to be academic and technical and thick. This is not that kind of book. It is for folks looking to have the story of Jesus told simply, at a high level, and not weighed down by dense, technical theological terms and data.
Who is this book for? I think a couple of people: Someone who is searching and seeking out Truth, looking to fulfill and satisfy that ache that nothing in the world seems to fill. It is also for the believer who might need to pause, take a step back, and be reminded of the simple, no-frills story of "Why Jesus?". It is good from time to time to have the haze and film build-up of academia stripped away occasionally and revisit the story unadorned by theological jargon.
There is still much power in the story of the Nazarene carpenter and Jason provides it to us in its raw, wooden form; its unvarnished glory. If nothing else, it is a reminder that there is tremendous power in simplicity.
