5.0 out of 5 stars A book that makes a great gift January 4, 2008
Format:Paperback
Max Lucado has a way to illustrate concepts in the bible to make them crystal clear. I was raised with daily bible reading at the dinner table and know the bible well. As well as I know it, reading Max Lucado's books, and especially 3:16, has renewed and deepened the realization that God's love as expressed in Jesus is all encompassing and unconditional. He loves me when I don't love, or even like, myself.

3.0 out of 5 stars shorter than I thought.... May 19, 2011
By Katie
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I read the full version of this book from the library and wanted to buy it for a gift. When I received this book though, I realized this version is only 50 pages long! This was a brief summary of the actual book, so that was a little disappointing, but for $2.99 I didn't really want to waste time returning it. Just so you know, this is only a summary/brochure type book so don't expect a novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding November 27, 2008
Format:Paperback
I have loved all of Max Lacado's books but this one stands above them all... it is a verse from the Bible that most everyone can quote and yet do we really 'know' the meaning of this verse. I have read the book several times and have shared with many others...
thanks Max for bringing this verse back to us in a very real form. I have also boughten this book and given to those that are without Him..you can't read the book and not change something about your life after everything Jesus went through for you and me.

More About the Author

In just under two decades of writing, Max Lucado has accomplished more than most writers hope for in a lifetime. Most of his books have appeared on one or more best seller lists, including those published by the "New York Times," "USA Today," "Publishers Weekly," and the Christian Booksellers Association (CBA). Aside from hardcover books, Lucado's writings have also been published as children's books, videos, CD-ROMs, DVDs, music CDs, mass paperback booklets, apparel, giftware, bookmarks, calendars, study Bibles, workbooks, curricula, and plush products. In spring 2003, Hallmark/Dayspring Cards launched a new gift card line featuring excerpts from Lucado's writings--and has already sold more than one million cards.

All this success has drawn more than a little attention to a previously low-profile Texas author and minister. Lucado has been featured in a wide range of media, including "USA Today," "Larry King Live," and "NBC Nightly News." He has spoken at the National Prayer Breakfast before the President of the United States. He has traveled with internationally renowned musicians as a special speaker on their music tours, such as the highly successful "Come Together & Worship Tour" (sponsored by Chevrolet) with Grammy Award-winning artists Michael W. Smith and Third Day.

Journey to the Top
Lucado was born in 1955 in San Angelo, Texas, and raised in Andrews, Texas, the youngest of four children. His father was an Exxon oil field mechanic who, Lucado remembers, always smelled of grease cleaner. "It makes it easy for me to see a God who is loving and kind--because my dad was," he says. His mother was a nurse who grew up working in the cotton fields.

Lucado went through a period of rebellion against his parents' values and their God during his teens and into college. But it wasn't long before he found himself drawn back to his roots, back to God. He married, spent time serving as a missionary in Brazil, and returned to the States, where he began working as a church minister and writing on the side.

Secret to Success
From all accounts, Max Lucado is not a man consumed by sales, awards, and achievements. He often turns down media interviews since they impede on family and ministry commitments. He spends the bulk of his week serving as senior minister at Oak Hills Church in San Antonio, Texas. And he is truly surprised by his own success--more impressed by his one-in-a-million wife and three amazing daughters than by his successful writing career.
