Book Description

Great Lives Series February 12, 2008

Jesus Christ. He is, without question, the most influential person in history. Millions of people claim the truths of the religion that bears His name.

But who exactly is Jesus? A popular religious teacher? An ancient martyr? Many today are unsure. Even scholars debate whether the Jesus of history is the Christ of faith. Now, more than ever, we need a clear understanding of the person and work of the man millions call Savior. 

In this ninth and final biographical study in the best-selling Great Lives from God's Word series, beloved pastor and Bible teacher Charles Swindoll introduces you to the carpenter from Nazareth as you have never seen Him before.  

This fascinating biography, filled with biblical and historical insights, takes you on an unforgettable journey through the complex and provocative life of Jesus of Nazareth. His unique birth. His astonishing power. His controversial teaching. His shocking death. And His world-changing resurrection.  

Refreshingly honest and deep, this in-depth profile reveals Jesus with great clarity and offers practical applications for your own life. Whether you're just curious about Jesus or a longtime follower of His life and teachings, you'll experience His life in a new way as you join Dr. Swindoll in Jesus: The Greatest Life of All.

5.0 out of 5 stars Feel like you are there, August 25, 2010
This review is from: Jesus: The Greatest Life of All (Great Lives Series) (Hardcover)
I got this book because of the great reviews it had, however I still had my
reservations about a book about Jesus. How can anyone add anymore to what is
already known?
Charles Swindoll masterfully illustrates the life of Jesus, taking you to the
time when our God walked among us. This is a true refreshment, leading one to
take in deeply the living water called Jesus Christ.
I felt like I was there in livid detail. This is not another book about Jesus,
this is an eye peering, fantastically detailed biography, that at times reads like
a novel.
Bravo to Chuck Swindoll. I look forward to reading the other great lives of the Bible.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful subject and Swindoll is right on, February 24, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Jesus: The Greatest Life of All (Great Lives Series) (Hardcover)

It should be easy to tell a good story about Jesus but Charles Swindoll is always very interesting in the way he organizes his biblical biographies. He uses images and ideas we can all understand when we are trying to open the mystery and wonder in the Bible. I loved this book and got two more to share, one just for my son to keep.
