Life Tastes Better

Sam Allberry

So many people have a view of Jesus — if they have any view of him at all — that he will somehow take the flavour out of life if you get too close to him. Terry Virgo shows how wrong a view that is. Jesus came to give life, the fuller, richer, tastier life we all sense we need.

Life Tastes Better by Terry Virgo – A Review

Life Tastes Better is a short and punchy new give-away book from Terry Virgo, the founder of the Newfrontiers network of churches. It’s aimed at – and ideal for – those who are wanting to explore the Christian faith, demonstrating the life-changing surprise Jesus brings. Virgo’s friendly and conversational tone, as well as the fact the ‘book’ is only five short chapters (each between 6-14 pages) mean it’s a very light and inviting read.... continue reading

“A surprising little book”

A surprising little book, or rather booklet, of some 40 pages, most readable particularly for today's younger generation. Fresh off the press, I can see many people buying multiple copies! A teenage friend wrote: “ 'Life Tastes Better' is an interesting read for anyone intrigued about religion and their own faith in Jesus, and is an easy way to question what you want to gain from being a Christian. The conversational tone and personal anecdotes make the book an easy and relatable piece of text in which I personally saw reflections of my own day-to-day life. Virgo diminishes misconceptions about Christianity and gives the reader ways to better utilise their belief in God that can help themselves and others around them. I found the book somewhat comforting and believe it brought me closer to my own faith since it is so easy to incorporate Jesus into the decisions I make every day.”
