ChristHeart is a book of meditations that are based on thirty-four (34) events or teachings from the Life of Jesus Christ. The reader is invited to enter more fully into the life of the human Jesus and to identify with the feelings and thoughts of Christ as he carried out his earthly ministry. Designed to facilitate contemplative prayer, the author encourages readers to imagine the responses of Jesus as he dealt with conflict, entered into friendship with the disciples and others, healed and taught people about a vital personal love relationship with God. The reader is then given the opportunity to enter into the experiences of Jesus by reading a selected scripture from the Gospels, and one of the meditations, and then, by using his imagination, to picture the scene and identify with the feelings and thoughts of Jesus in that particular scene.
