In this seminal work, beloved pastor and bestselling author Max Lucado explores the life and character of Jesus, now with never-before-read content.
The God of the universe knows your name. He has walked your streets. Jesus. Perhaps you've heard about him, studied him, or prayed to him. But do you know him? This is the question Max poses to the reader. Divided into six sections (Immanuel, Friend, Teacher, Miracle Worker, Lamb of God, Returning King) each containing multiple chapters, this book not only describes the person of Jesus but also eloquently dives into the heart of Jesus towards the reader.
By exploring Jesus' life death and resurrection as well as specific details like how he interacted with his friends and his enemies, what he did with time alone, how he acted at a party, this compilation from Max Lucado, now with original never-before-read content from Max, gives readers the chance to become more familiar with the man at the center of the greatest story ever told.
By learning more about the person Jesus was and is, the reader will understand more clearly the person they were created to be. Max writes "Don't settle for a cursory glance or a superficial understanding. Look long into the heart of Christ and you'll see it. Grace and life. Forgiveness of sin. The defeat of death. This is the hope he gives. This is the hope we need."

Find out what matters to Jesus. Want to know what in the world God is doing? Ponder the words and life of Jesus.

Max writes in a way that makes you feel like you were actually there walking with Jesus, eating with him and his disciples and feeling his compassion as he interacts with people. He shows Jesus as not a distant God and historical character but a God who loves you, regardless of who you are and what you have done, a God who smiles and wants to be a part of your life. \\nMax uses a story telling style. This book is very easy to read but is packed with biblical truths.

Good reading to understand the Lord
This book is perfect for those that looking to understand God's grace and the story of Jesus Christ. \\nThe chapters are intriguing to read, although they are hard to get into to start off with by the end of each and every chapter I was left thinking 'that chapter really spoke to me!'\\nThe contents of this book focuses on understand how God became flesh and the life he lived and the reason Jesus came to earth. \\nIt's a great read and really spoke to me in envisioning the reason for Grace and our need for Christ.
