Every major world religion recognizes the existence of Jesus – or at least the potential existence of Jesus – through a lens of impact. For Christians, he is the savior of the world. For Jews, Hindus, and Buddhists he is a teacher. Islam recognizes his connection to the divine and shares with Christianity the belief that he will have a role in the “end of days”. Many pagans include him in the pantheon of gods from whom guidance can be asked.
I think Jesus is found in the best of each of us, regardless of who we are or what god we follow…even if we don’t follow any god at all.
So I thought I might explore it a bit using the book “Rediscover Jesus” by Matthew Kelly as a bit of a prompt.
