Lifeswap: Finding the life you always wanted

by Krish Kandiah

Lifeswap captures a main theme of John's Gospel: transformation - water into wine, the dead to life, blind to sighted. Krish draws us into the stories and demonstrates how similar we are to those in the first century who came to meet Jesus. The book starts by looking at the lifeswap Jesus chose as he left his life in heaven. Lifeswap happens to a puzzled religious expert who has to examine the cost of a brand new start. Lifeswap happens to an excluded foreigner who meets Jesus at the well and learns that emptiness can be swapped for fulfilment. When Jesus is involved he turns our expectations upside down. With many photographs and examples from film and popular culture, this is a companion volume to Destiny.

It is a brilliant read, really enjoyed Krish's style but most importantly da way he talks about Jesus is really exciting.
