40 Days with Jesus: An Invitation to Know Him Better
How well do you know Jesus? This little book of daily readings introduces you to the character and life of Jesus Christ.’My hope is that as you read, you’ll discover, or will remember, just how central Jesus is to Christianity,’ says Malcolm. ‘Jesus didn’t come to establish a religion, he came to change lives and to deal with the barriers that exist between God and us. Unfortunately, we Christians are very good at boxing him in. He doesn’t like boxes – they feel a little too like tombs and Jesus has a tendency to refuse to stay in those. May you meet Jesus in a way that will change your life forever.’A short prayer accompanies each section.Review“With scholarly wisdom and inspirational devotion Malcolm invites us to encounter the real Jesus.
