The Jesus I Never Knew By Philip Yancey / Zondervan In The Jesus I Never Knew, Philip Yancey reveals the real Jesus beyond the stereotypes, offering a new and different perspective on the life of Christ and his work---his teaching, his miracles, his death and resurrection---and ultimately, who he was and why he came. Relating the gospel events to the world we live in today, The Jesus I Never Knew gives a moving and refreshing portrait of the central figure of history. With a willingness to tackle difficult questions, Yancey looks at the radical words of this itinerant Jewish carpenter and asks whether we are taking him seriously enough in our own day and age. From the manger in Bethlehem to the cross in Jerusalem, Yancey presents a complex character who generates questions as well as answers; a disturbing and exhilarating Jesus who wants to radically transform your life and stretch your faith; and a Jesus who is brilliant, creative, challenging, fearless, compassionate, unpredictable, and ultimately satisfying. |

By Philip Yancey / Zondervan You probably have questions about the Christian faith that you are afraid to ask, such as: How does a "relationship" with God really work?

In this powerful volume Yancey will explain how your doubts and questions about the Christian life can be a means of Reaching for the Invisible God. This book is a wonderful guide for those who love God and are looking for more than pat answers to life's imponderables. |
