AUTHENTIC JESUS: EXPERIENCING GOD IN EVERYDAY LIFE

“Oh, how we need a “suddenly” in our lives – a break from the everyday routine, a way for our purpose to be restored. When God calls our names and lets us know that we may have forgotten, but He hasn’t”. – AUTHENTIC JESUS

Maybe you’re like many, not satisfied with living life on the surface and longing to go deeper, but you realize it’s going to take more than changed behavior to overcome life’s pain, obstacles, and challenges.

IT’S GOING TO TAKE A TRUE ENCOUNTER WITH JESUS.

A DEVOTIONAL THAT WILL MAKE YOU THINK, ACT AND PRAY.

About Dori

Dori spent the early part of her life desperately wanting to be loved, to belong, and to matter. In her attempt she just about destroyed herself, when she realized that nothing could satisfy her deep needs, she went on a search to know God. She wanted to know the truth, and in wanting to know the truth, she found the truth – Jesus.

She has ministered to a wide variety of people, which includes abused women, abandoned children and drug addicts. With her passion for outreach, she ran a food bank and two recovery homes while serving as chaplain for the hospital and the sheriff’s department, she specializes in both grief and crisis counselling.

Along with her husband Bruce, she founded and pastored a church in San Benito County for 22 years. She continues to reach hearts through pastoring, teaching and counselling. She also loves mentoring young women and speaking at conferences, retreats and churches.

When she’s not reading a good book, Dori enjoys time with her grandkids and playing pickleball with friends.

What leaders are saying about Authentic Jesus

Something you’ll keep close…

God is calling so many of us to slow down and go deeper with Him in this hour. That’s why I’m so grateful for Dori Bannister’s 90 day devotional, Authentic Jesus – Experiencing God in everyday life.

Having known her for decades, I treasure her insights and inspirational writings. I am sure this unique resource will become a favorite of yours – something you’ll keep close in your quiet times with the Lord.

Dr. David Cannistraci, Senior Pastor of Gateway City Church

Collection of wisdom and experience…

In this devotional, Dori Bannister has given us a collection of wisdom and experience that is invaluable. There are people who know things because they study them in a book, and there are people who know things because they lived them. Doriis the latter.

She speaks from years of experience of how Jesus has worked in her life, and through her in the lives of others. It’s the best kind of devotional there is, one that is derived from truth that has been proven and tested by the author.

Life-empowering revelations…”

Dori is a gifted communicator and knows what it’s like to “get down and get real” with people.

In her adventurous christian walk, she has also had her own share of “unexpected dissappointments,” amidst the parade of supernatural victories.

Her book is filled with life- empowering revelations, birthed out of when “faith meets crisis.  I highly endorsed Dori’s book, her teaching and preaching skills, and her rare understanding on how to encounter God.
