Publisher's summary

God without religion? Andrew Farley’s experience as a Christian was first characterized by self-effort as he tried to please God at any cost. His ruthless religion resulted in spiritual fatigue and disillusionment with church. Only then did he discover what relaxing in Jesus means and how enjoying God’s intimate presence can transform everyday life. Using a story-driven format, God without Religion dismantles common religious misconceptions, revealing:

  • a hopeful approach to what unites us rather than what divides us
  • the true meaning of walking by the Spirit
  • the facts about judgment, rewards, and God’s discipline
  • the problem with the popular challenge to “die to self”

Pulling no punches, Andrew shows how the truth about these controversial issues can liberate and unify believers as we discover how to rest in the unconditional love of God.

Great book with much scripture.

I thoroughly enjoyed this reading. The narrator was emotive and easy to listen to. There was so much information given, you could listen to the book multiple times and glean from it. I will and have recommended to others.

The Title says it all!

Great book for those who know or need to know that Jesus didn't come here to start a new religion, but to restore a relationship. The narration was fun and the little side stories made it really interesting.....Loved it!

Excellent, I highly recommend this book!

Would you consider the audio edition of God Without Religion to be better than the print version?

I don't know, I haven't read the print version. I enjoy audiobooks because I can listen while doing household chores that don't require much thought.

What did you like best about this story?

It does an excellent job explaining that we should not judge others or ourselves because of Christ's sacrifice which freed us.

Which scene was your favorite?

The first two chapters

Were invited to God - without religion.

Insightful and thought provoking. I will listen/read again.
Excellent narrator.
Many moving moments.
Not being a traditional church/religious person, I have enjoyed this refreshing perspective that seems to more accurately depict my sense of it all being one without a lot of 'bible knowledge.'

Important to hear

I think this book was just right for this moment for me. I bought it some time ago but didn't have time to listen it but it answers many questions that I have had. The book gave me many ideas. I think this is a book many Christians should read.

I liked the book but I feel like something is missing. There are many good illustrations and it is good for me but I felt like it does not quite tell how the Christian life looks like without religion. Perhaps it is intestinal as we need to find a way for ourselves.

The truth shall set you free

Audio books in general have set me free.
I grow tired by regular reading, my eyes a long with my dyslexia make traditional reading hard. I can hardly get through the first chapter of any book. Now back to this book it should be read by people who have grown up in church and by people who have not in other words by everybody who wants A deeper walk with truth, peace & victory in letting the light of love shine through in a world so full of darkness.
