What is Jesus’ abundant life all about?

We know that in John 10:10 Jesus says, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly” (NRSV). But what does he mean?

That is the question I want to answer in this series of posts. I am exploring the cultural and grammatical context of the phrase, how the author uses the same words in other places, and possible modern applications.

The ultimate end goal is to write the book, Abundance Reconstructed, which invites the reader to consider what Jesus’ abundant life might look like on the other side of Christian deconstruction.
