Jesus Christians are considered a radical Christian movement who practice communal living. They distribute Bible-based comics and do free (voluntary) work. They were founded in Sydney, Australia, in 1980. Detractors have called them a "kidney cult" because a high proportion of members have donated their kidneys for transplantation to complete strangers who are in need.
