This book is for 21st-century Jesus followers. It is not about 21st-century Jesus followers. It is about the eleven disciples and Jesus. It takes place in the upper room. Why eleven? Judas had left the group on his way to betray Jesus. The account is found in the Gospel of John, Chapters 13-15. These chapters are packed with information that was important for the eleven to know. They would not be together again until after the resurrection. Specific consideration will be made about the contrast between what the eleven knew at that time and what the 21st-century Jesus followers know today. Of course, Jesus knew everything. We will find much said about love, obedience, and relationships, Jesus, the Father, and the eleven. We will discover that Jesus specifically states that the 21st-century followers are included in His instructions, promises, and provisions. Most of these truths highlighted have been very precious to all Jesus followers through the years. I believe the 21st-century Jesus will discover a new perspective on the message presented in the upper room. My desire is that they will come away with a deeper sense of what was happening then and a deeper appreciation of Jesus. I did while writing this book.
