Recommend The Story of Jesus

December 5, 2009

Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Today I would like to recommend The Story of Jesus.  It is a 12 Chapter booklet that can be read either online or via Adobe Reader.  They also offer to sell the booklet at their cost to promote giving the book away to those that would benefit from this story.  Their cost is $1.50 per book which would encourage Christians to purchase multiple copies to leave at dentist offices, doctors office, etc. or to give away.  I have read through this book and highly recommend it anyone who is curious who Jesus really was and what He taught.  I am listing below the table of contents in order to show how comprehensive this little book is.  While it is comprehensive, it is a very easy read and is from the Gospel of John.  I really hope and pray that Christians will avail themselves of this wonderful tool for sharing the Gospel and that those that are questioning what Christians believe will take the time to read this little book.  It really is a very easy read.  Click here to be taken directly to The Story of Jesus.
