What Do These Words Actually Mean? A Reader's Guide to the Vocabulary of Jesus' Teachings

Plain-English definitions of kingdom, faith, metanoia and parable, as background reading on Jesus' teachings alongside The Billionaire Christ Mind. Few bodies of teaching have been quoted as often, or explained as differently, as the sayings attributed to Jesus. Some readers arrive from a church upbringing, some from a general curiosity about spirituality, and some from a quiet suspicion that familiar words were never fully explained to them. Whichever door you came through, the vocabulary can feel both familiar and strangely out of focus. This guide answers a simple question for ten of those words: what do they mean, in plain language, and where do their meanings come from? It is background reading on the subject, offered alongside THE BILLIONAIRE CHRIST MIND (https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=YybrEQAAQBAJ) by Dr. Ajarn Robert Shumake (Ajarn Shaman Shu) of Buddha Digital Temple. It does not describe the book's chapters or claims. It stays at the level of general reference, the sort of thing a thoughtful friend with a library might tell you over coffee.
