Zach Maldonado

What if God Is Better Than You Imagined? Do you find yourself doubting God and weary of religion? Are you tired of the confusing answers, the hypocrisy, and the feeling that God isn't enough? If so, you're not alone. Like many believers, author and pastor Zach Maldonado experienced the same disappointment with Christianity. He asked questions-about God, about Jesus, about himself-that he didn't have answers for. Yet, despite all this, something sparked his passion for Jesus and compelled him to devote his life to sharing a simple message. This message is not dead theology. It's not rule-keeping or a pep talk to be more radical. Instead, it's an invitation to a relationship that's free from to-do lists, shame, and legalism. Jesus Is Better offers answers to the most difficult questions about Christianity, as well as hope for the weary believer, the distant skeptic, and those who desire to leave religion behind and embrace the God who not only loves them without condition, but actually likes and enjoys who they are. Through it you'll rediscover Jesus in a fresh new way that will completely change your life.

Do you doubt God's goodness? Are you fearful that He will judge you for your mistakes? For many of us, we get saved and then we're told we need to do more, be better, and try harder in order for God to love and forgive us. We have even bought the lie that God is punishing us for our sins and that one day we will have to face judgment for every single mistake we make. In The Cross Worked., Zach Maldonado explores the Scriptures about forgiveness, reward, and judgment, and dismantles the popular religious jargon around these verses, helping readers: Discover the forgiveness they have in Christ. Overcome their fear of God's judgment. Know the goodness and love of God. By the end of The Cross Worked. you'll understand how to enjoy Jesus and live each day with confidence
