Fiction. Literature. Christian Fiction. HTML:You are Invited to a Dinner with Jesus of Nazareth
The mysterious envelope arrives on Nick Cominsky’s desk amid a stack of credit card applications and business-related junk mail. Although his seventy-hour workweek has already eaten into his limited family time, Nick can’t pass up the opportunity to see what kind of plot his colleagues have hatched.
The normally confident, cynical Nick soon finds himself thrown off-balance, drawn into an intriguing conversation with a baffling man who appears to be more than comfortable discussing everything from world religions to the existence of heaven and hell. And this man who calls himself Jesus also seems to know a disturbing amount about Nick’s personal life.
…………..
"You’re bored, Nick. You were made for more than this. You’re worried about God stealing your fun, but you’ve got it backwards.… There’s no adventure like being joined to the Creator of the universe." He leaned back off the table. "And your first mission would be to let him guide you out of the mess you’re in at work."
………….
As the evening progresses, their conversation touches on life, God, meaning, pain, faith, and doubt–and it seems that having Dinner with a Perfect Stranger may change Nick’s life forever.

What a fast quick introduction in Chrristianity? Try this book. It's only 100 pages so it doesn't get too philosophical but just enough to make you think - what would you do and say if you had dinner with Jesus? It reminded me that God is there waiting for us. ( )

Dinner With a Perfect Stranger is an interesting book of fiction about a man invited to dinner by Jesus. The man sceptical that his friends are playing a joke on him he goes along with the idea and a long dinner conversation ensues. The man questions Jesus but more so Jesus questions the man. The banter is what most Christians believe verses what Jesus says is real. It's a short book and a quick read but it prompts some thought. I believe one of the struggles that permeates the conversation is that man believes that he has to do good to earn his way to heaven. Jesus states throughout that you can not earns Gods grace no matter how hard you try. Rather it is free for those that accept it. Not the greatest piece of literature but the idea of being able to talk to Jesus and what he would say is in itself interesting. ( )

This is a very light read. Gregory does a good job addressing a number of items that you might imagine would come up over dinner with Christ. Some of the topics he only just touches upon, but that makes sense given that I think this is meant to be a lighter introduction to Christianity. ( )
