Publisher Description

Joseph Girzone, the author who so powerfully captured the spirit of Jesus in his Joshua novels and in his bestselling A Portrait of Jesus, brings his work to culmination with a beautiful retelling of the life and work of Jesus based on the accounts in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

Girzone captures the greatest story ever told in language that will open the hearts of listeners from all backgrounds. From the birth of the Messiah, to the wedding at Cana, the Sermon on the Mount, the Passion, and the triumphant Resurrection, each episode and lesson from the life of Jesus is rendered with wisdom and freshness.

"This book helped explain some parts of the New Testament (Gospels) that I had previously not understood. I listened to it as an audiobook and I would recommend this version of the book. Readers both young and old could enjoy reading this material."
— Denise (5 out of 5 stars)

Overall Performance:
" I thought this was going to be a book explaining the life and teachings of Jesus, but really, it was more like a condensed version of all the stories about Jesus in the Bible. Even though I've read or heard them all before, it was still interesting and comforting to hear them again. "
