What is real? Do you ever wonder if something is truly real? Can real things become more real? In More Love-More Real More Real-More Love, we will explore answers to the question. The exploration will begin with excerpts from a popular old children’s story, The Velveteen Rabbit.

The thoughts about what is in “it” for Jesus came to me when this verse was read during a worship service in my local fellowship. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance (Ephesians 1:18). I found it amazing to think that believers, his holy people, could be his rich and glorious inheritance. Probably like most other Jesus followers, my focus has always been on what is in it for me.

In Battle for Your Mind, we dig into the details of the process of transformation for the Jesus follower. Scripture reveals that since the Jesus follower is indwelt by the Holy Spirit, they have been given a renewed mind. As new creatures in Christ, the Jesus follower has a new capacity for thinking. They begin to think biblically. They begin to obey the teachings of Scripture. They find a need to reject and abandon the old ways of thinking and replace them with new ways of thinking. Hence, the value and importance of a new mind.

I seek to identify the assumed or presented issue and then through exploration of Scripture discover the "real" issue. Part 1 concerns issues involving the supernatural. Part 2 looks at issues concerning the process that God uses to grow believers in Christ-likeness. Part 3 explores the issue of leadership in the church of Jesus Christ and who is in charge.

God created mankind with the capacity to think. What a person thinks matters and what a person believes matters. Anything that matters must be important. People like to know what they think and what they believe is true because that would be important. However, that is not what happens because sometimes, maybe often, people think and believe what is not true. This is a problem. This book is about truth and reality. This book is about the importance of God's truth and God's reality because God's truth and God's reality matter.

The first four chapters elaborate on the concept of camps. This is important background information for personal application for the Jesus follower that comes in the last three chapters.

This book concentrates on Jesus in the Gospel of John by looking at stories, lessons taught by Jesus, and what Jesus said about some topics.

Those Jesus followers who have known Jesus for a long time keep discovering the riches and treasures that come to them as a benefit of being "in Christ." As they contemplate these riches and treasures, they can become overwhelmed by worship and praise.

In this book, I have explored the many examples, illustrations, and proclamations of those riches and treasures.
