Meet Jesus. Experience His burial, resurrection, and ascension in a
contemporary rhythm-and-rhyme style. "Overhear" the conversations
He had with eleven people He encountered during His stint on earth
- plus one that occurred after His ascension . Some of the
conversations Jesus Himself initiated, as with Simon Peter and the
commission to "feed My lambs." Others were prompted by questions
and issues brought to Jesus. Some were sincere, as Nicodemus' "How
can a man be born when he is old?" Some were designed to ensnare
Him in theological issues, such as the Pharisees' bringing the
woman taken in adultery: "Now Moses in the law commanded us, that
such should be stoned; but what sayest thou?" This book seeks to
show a Jesus who was both divine -"This Jesus, taken up from
you/Shall return the same way, at last" - and human - "I'm coming
to visit in your house." He is both Jesus, the Friend who can
identify with our human frailties and foibles, and Christ, our
Savior and Redeemer. He not only understands first-hand the meaning
of life in the world, but He has the answers and solutions to that
life's questions and puzzles. Nathanael was amazed. Nicodemus
sneaked in. The Samaritan woman wanted to worship and witness. The
adulteress was embarrassed. The rich young ruler desired it all.
Martha fretted. Zacchaeus desired to give it all back. The lawyer
met neighbors he didn't know he had. James and John were put in
their place, ever so gently. Mary Magdalene wept. Simon Peter knew
brotherly love. Saul of Tarsus heard a voice. Jesus loved each one
of them, met them where they were, and directed them toward heaven.
Listen. He has answers and solutions for you, too.
