Reading Enjoying Jesus has been an extraordinary blessing, causing me to enjoy Jesus anew. As I progressed through the book, I found myself gazing at Jesus with fresh insight and affection during both ordinary and challenging moments of the day and in wakeful hours at night. Towards the end of the book, Tim writes, “When your eyes are fixed on Jesus, you’ll realise you are rich”, and with his characteristic clarity and warmth, he leads us to that treasure. Enjoying Jesus combines rich biblical teaching, pastoral wisdom and personal testimony in a way that will draw you closer to Jesus, with a substance and intimacy you might not have thought possible. Read it slowly and delight in the reality of Jesus’ presence and kindness.
Matt Fuller (Senior Pastor of Christchurch Mayfair
This is a great book. Tim makes important theological distinctions with a lightness of touch and helpful illustrations so that the reader is learning deep truths of the faith without really noticing. He then helps us to take practical steps to enjoy different aspects of Jesus’ character and work; each chapter concludes with numerous suggestions of how to let the glory of Jesus make a difference each day. Some of the chapters left me very greatly affected and rejoicing deeply.
John Risbridger (Minister and Team Leader
Refreshing, devotional and deeply Jesus-centred. This book takes us on a journey of biblical reflection to discover a deeper delight in the Lord Jesus. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it.
What a magnificent book! And what a marvellous Saviour! As ever, Tim Chester relates historical theology, faithful exposition and warm application to the spine-tingling reality of the right-here, right-now ministry of the risen Lord Jesus. (Lead Minister
Jeff Purswell (Director of Theology and Training
How many Christians seek to live faithfully for Christ but find the experience of actually enjoying him all too elusive? In this precious book, Tim Chester shows us that the Jesus we meet in Scripture—compassionate, strong, welcoming, loving, life-giving, glorious—is the same Jesus who is present and active in our lives each day. By alerting us to our Savior’s manifold expressions of love and care, Tim motivates us to move toward Jesus and find in him all the comfort, grace and joy he offers to his own.
