You're hanging on for dear life. The kids, the schedule, the money, the marriage, and somewhere in the middle of it you've stopped being able to see Jesus at all.
Not stopped believing. Stopped seeing. He's there the way the front yard is there, and you are too tired to look.
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John each stood in a different spot and saw a different side of the same Savior. One saw the King. One saw the Servant who stoops. One saw the friend of the overlooked. One saw God. Read them together and a Jesus you thought you knew starts coming into focus from four directions at once.
What you'll find:
* Twelve short chapters, one Gospel writer at a time, written to be read in a tired half hour
* The gentleness and care of Christ drawn out where you'd never noticed it
* Questions at the end of each chapter, for you alone or a group of friends
* One small thing to do each week, not a program
I've ministered for thirty years, pastored at The Center for Executive Leadership in Birmingham, and taught Scripture in seminary classrooms. But I learned the most important thing in this book from my mother in a sunlit foyer when I was a boy: there's always more to see, but you have to look for it.
Come look.

Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. I wrote The Four Faces of Christ to offer a clearer understanding of who Jesus is by examining the distinct perspectives provided by the Gospels. Just as four great artists would present distinct depictions of the same subject, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John give us four perspectives of Christ that, when combined, provide a fuller understanding of who He is.This book is an exploration of those perspectives, aiming to uncover the depth and complexity of Jesus' character that might not be immediately obvious. By examining how each Gospel writer portrays Him, I hope to provide a fuller, more nuanced picture of Christ that challenges preconceived notions and deepens understanding. My goal is to show that there is always more to see and learn, even in the most familiar stories. Seller Inventory # 00099411712
