Jesus

Jesus himself asked it first: Who do you say that I am? Over the centuries, men and women have faced that question again and again. Now this book invites you to explore the person and character of Jesus in the company of some of today's most respected Christian writers. The Jesus you'll meet in these pages is the real Person. The living Christ who changed history and is still in the business of changing lives today. In eight fascinating chapters of this book, you'll come to know him as: * Lord of All, worthy and capable of running the universe-and your life. * A Mighty Warrior, who fights for you in a cosmic battle you cannot otherwise win. * The Best Friend You'll Ever Have, dependable, committed, and great company. * A Uniquely Effective Teacher, who helps you make sense of life and choose wisely. * A Compassionate Healer, who longs to restore your body, your heart, and your soul. * The Prince of Peace, whose very presence overcomes anxiety, stress, and conflict. * The Lover of Your Soul, who takes you at your worst and seeks to make you your best. * Your Personal Savior, who willingly suffered torture and death to spare you the fate your sins deserve and to bring you into an eternal relationship with God. Each chapter features personal application, scripture selections, thought/discussion questions, even poems and prayers for meditation and inspiration. A Bible Reading Plan also gives you what you need to explore the life and teachings of Jesus over the course of a year.Thomas Nelson Publishing Staff is the author of 'Jesus', published 2004 under ISBN 9780849918346 and ISBN 0849918340.
