Jesus came to preach the good news of freedom and direct connection with God. He did not dwell on "the sinful nature of man," he concentrated on the beauty at the core of every person, and how we could awaken that beauty by brushing away all of the falsity and deception. His message was very much like many of the great teachers in the world, except it had a strong focus on being and doing love. In Reclaiming the Relgion of Jesus in a Modern Age we work to reclaim these original teachings.
