We know Jesus has saved us. We know we need to trust him. But too often there’s little sense of a lived experience of him—of enjoying him and being a joy to him, of loving him and being loved by him, of interacting with him as we walk through each day.

In Enjoying Jesus, Tim Chester explores how Jesus acted and interacted with people in Luke’s Gospel and how, through his Spirit, we can experience the joy of Jesus’ presence and companionship in our day-to-day lives.

This book is ideal for anyone wanting to deepen their relationship with Jesus, especially those who feel disconnected from God or those going through the motions of the Christian life without joy. It will also help new Christians who want to understand how Jesus is with them by his Spirit.

Each chapter includes reflection questions and practical suggestions on how to experience a close, joyful relationship with Jesus. The accompanying discussion guide makes this a useful resource for small groups.

Enjoying Jesus and Life with Jesus: Youth Edition

“This is a great book. Tim makes important theological distinctions with a lightness of touch and helpful illustrations so that the reader is learning deep truths of the faith without really noticing. He then helps us to take practical steps to enjoy different aspects of Jesus’ character and work; each chapter concludes with numerous suggestions of how to let the glory of Jesus make a difference each day. Some of the chapters left me very greatly affected and rejoicing deeply.” MATT FULLER, Senior Minister, Christ Church Mayfair, London; Author, Reclaiming Masculinity and Time for Everything?

“Reading Enjoying Jesus has been an extraordinary blessing, causing me to enjoy Jesus anew. As I progressed through the book, I found myself gazing at Jesus with fresh insight and affection during both ordinary and challenging moments of the day and in wakeful hours at night. Towards the end of the book, Tim writes, “When your eyes are fixed on Jesus, you’ll realise you are rich”, and with his characteristic clarity and warmth, he leads us to that treasure. Enjoying Jesus combines rich biblical teaching, pastoral wisdom and personal testimony in a way that will draw you closer to Jesus, with a substance and intimacy you might not have thought possible. Read it slowly and delight in the reality of Jesus’ presence and kindness.” JEN CHARTERIS, Executive Director, Crosslands

“Christians talk easily about “having a relationship with Jesus”. But what do we actually mean—really, practically, today? Tim Chester wants normal, ordinary Christians to genuinely enjoy Jesus, not just to know about him in the abstract. This gentle, warm book is an invitation to experience Jesus’ presence, love, grace and compassion in our everyday lives. I really enjoyed reading it and think you will too.” MARCUS HONEYSETT, Director, Living Leadership

“The greatest problem Christians have today is that they don’t enjoy Jesus as they could. This is the root of so many of our fears and woes. In this beautiful book, Tim Chester helps us to appreciate all that Jesus is and to see the practical and transformative difference that he can make in our daily lives. It is like a trip to the Caribbean for the soul.” MICHAEL REEVES, President and Professor of Theology, Union School of Theology; Author, Rejoice and Tremble
