Jesus - Max Lucado
For more than Three decades, pasture and best selling author Max Lu Kucado has shown us Jesus. And this capstone book, he takes us further on the journey to know the life and character of the Savior.
For Thirty-Three Years Jesus felt everything you and I ever felt. Weakness. Weariness. Sadness. Rejection. His feet got tired. And his head ached. He was tempted and his strength was tested. Do you think of Jesus in such a light seems almost irreverent, doesn’t it? It is much easier to keep the humanity out of the incarnation. Clean the manure from around the manger, there is something about keeping Jesus divine that keeps him distant, packaged, predictable.
But it’s only when we let him into the muck and mire of our world that he can pull us out. In becoming human, Jesus made it possible for us to see God. His tears, God's tears. His voice, God's voice. Want to know what matters to God? Find out what matters to Jesus. Want to know what in the world God is doing? Ponder the words and life of Jesus.
God wants you to know him. As you read these pages, may the Hero of all history talk to you personally, and make you find in Him the answer to your deepest needs.
