Something’s wrong.
We’ve been told we’re following Jesus—but what’s being sold in most churches today is a safe, polished, consumer-friendly version of Christianity that bears little resemblance to the Jesus of the New Testament. We’ve traded the living Christ for a mascot. And no one’s calling it out.
That’s why I started Welcome to Jesus.
Every week, I’ll do what I believe God’s called me to do for the rest of my life:
Write about the real Jesus—the One who disrupts illusions, confronts idols, and calls people to follow Him at any cost.
Expose how American consumerism has infiltrated even faithful, Bible-teaching churches.
Show how the version of “Jesus” being taught in those spaces often stands in direct contrast to the Jesus who walked this earth.
This is not about helping Christians feel better while keeping their compromised, consumer-Christian lifestyle intact. This is about reintroducing Jesus to Christians who already think they know Him—and doing whatever it takes to strip away the illusion.
About Me
I’m Brian Jones—founding pastor of Christ’s Church of the Valley in suburban Philadelphia, graduate of Princeton Theological Seminary, and author of four books—and for over 36 years, alongside my wife, Dr. Lisa Jones, I’ve helped people read the Bible with clarity and walk closely with Jesus.
If you’re spiritually hungry, restless, and ready to meet the Jesus who refuses to be tamed, you’re in the right place.
Welcome to Jesus.
Brian
