Hardwired to Christ is a daily devotional book which focuses on the union that exists between us and Christ; 365 questions about the most stunning spectacle in history — the cross of Jesus.
The author attempts to demystify the greatest mystery of all; ‘We have been joined to Christ’ — and in doing so challenges many of the pre-conceived ideas which have come to define Christianity. These old paradigms may be simply the established rhetoric of the culture of Christianity, or perhaps notions of God that have grown out of our need for security and identity — yet often we accept them without much thought, and find ourselves living out a form of Christianity which is incomplete and unsatisfying.
The author himself went through a challenging time of re-thinking the Christian faith when the oft repeated party lines where inadequate for the real life issues he was facing — in the process he gained an insight into Jesus Christ, his life and death, and their relevance today.
It was a realization of the extravagance of the work of Christ on the cross, and the relative dim glow generated by the things of this world.
We are hardwired to Christ — the cross has done its work.
