In an era without internet, television, or radio, the teachings of Jesus have spread and has reached us to this present day, despite political and religious efforts to silence them. But what made Jesus’ words so powerful that it continues to change lives today? What is it about His teachings that inspires such profound conviction? One thing is certain: His thoughts are as relevant to us now more than ever, capable of transforming the minds of those who engage with them.

Using clear language and a hint of humour, the book guides readers through Jesus’ most profound thoughts.

The purpose is to invite readers along with their friends and family, on a journey of self-discovery and transformation, allowing them to reflect on His thoughts and apply them to their daily lives.
In the introduction, Renato explains that miracles, repentance, strength, inner peace, family unity, transformation, liberation from evil forces, and joy are just some of the outcomes when one connects with the thoughts of Jesus. Renato emphasises that engaging with His teachings is essential for developing wisdom, building resilience, and promoting meaningful life changes.
