"Many people find Jesus attractive but have a hard time finding him within the bounds of traditional churches. While I remain optimistic about local church life, I am patient-even empathetic—with those who struggle with it. If you are one of those people,
The Way of Jesus is an intelligent and gentle guide for finding and following Jesus beginning right where you are."
—Todd Hunter, national director, Alpha-USA, and former national director, Vineyard-USA

"Since we met Jonathan and Jennifer Campbell as a whole family, we were impressed to see how they were ready to follow Jesus without compromise. You will be encouraged and learn from their experiences by reading this book!"
—Daniel and Cornelia Hari, authors, Healing Like Jesus, Luzern, Switzerland
"Jonathan Campbell has courageously followed a call to imagine and practice a way of Christian life in the midst of a North American church that too quickly sells itself out to the latest trends or images of success. One may not agree with all of his conclusions or descriptions, but he needs to be listened to because he was willing to go on a radical journey of pilgrimage and discovery. In that journey he reconnected with the centrality of Jesus and rediscovered the need to listen to others before imagining what God may be up to in our neighborhoods and in the reforming of Christian life in Western culture."
—Al Roxburgh, Canada
"Jonathan and Jennifer Campbell carry within them a unique mix of ‘something old and something new’ which enables them to speak about the journey of life with a fresh perspective. Read this and you will venture with them to discover truth beyond the trappings."
—Brett Johnson, author, Convergence; founder, The Institute for Innovation, Integration, and Impact
"A cosmic gypsy experience, a pilgrimage paced by light speed and amoebic slowness in the same eternal moment, discovering that eternity is always, always now. The Campbells have encouraged me by their courageous love of Jesus, by framing some edges I had not quite seen."
—Marsha Gilliland, manager, Intel Corporation
