What others are saying...
"Where's Your Jesus Now? is witty, full of compassion and righteous outrage." A.J. Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically & The Know-It-All.
"Karen Spears Zacharias has fashioned a witty, intelligent and poignant analysis of organized religion today—pungent manna for thought."
Winston Groom, author of Forrest Gump
"If this writer Karen Spears Zacharias should turn evangelist, the stadium will be full every night." --
Sonny Brewer, author of The Poet of Tolstoy Park. “Karen Spears Zacharias is the evangelical Anne Lamott. Reading her gives you instant commonsense as well as an infallible eye for tommyrot, and she wraps her gifts in humor, sass, spunk, and biblical wisdom. She's golden.”-- Scot McKnight, author of The Jesus Creed, and Professor in Religious Studies, North Park University.
"In a world that has cheapened God, this is the right book at the right time. It cuts to the cultural chase like the words of Brennan Manning and Oswald Chambers, challenging us while encouraging us. And Zacharias does so with a humble heart, a discerning pair of eyes, and an engaging style. Where's Your Jesus Now? has the power to change the way we all look at God. This is not only a good book, it's the most important book I've read in years." —Bob Welch, award-winning author, columnist and speaker
