A friend gave me a copy in college and I devoured it immediately. I like to underline the more meaningful passages and I found I was underlining the entire book. Roy and Revel Hession go straight to the heart of what is means to follow Jesus and seeing Him as all we need, as the truth, as the door, as the way, as the end and for others. The Hessions write in a powerful style that few modern day authors can emulate. The 96 pages make for a powerful book in a small package.

I'm reordering more copies of this wonderful book which has been one of my favorites for more than twenty years. The message is one sorely needed in every Christian life - only Jesus is worthy of our attention and adoration, that seeing Him is the solution to every problem of our lives. He is an unfailing Source of life and liberty. All else fades into insignificance as we fix our spiritual vision upon Him.

The singlemost profound and liberating extra-biblical work I have read. I am forever
changed because of it.

This is such an awesome book. Finished it within a week, and I plan to share it with my girls. Absolutely and positively a great pointer to the one and only thing that matters - Christ. I highly recommend this book to any heart that seems to have found itself wandering and dry. This will be a helpful aid leading you back to Christ, and as a result, awakens the truth in you.

When you are composing a "must-read" list of books, you should keep it rather short. There are many excellent books, but which ones _must_ be read? The Bible, for one. After that, "We Would See Jesus" rises rather close to the top.
Why?
Because it is short, yet dense. It is easily read, yet takes time to digest. And although you can read it in a Saturday, you will read it repeatedly to enjoy all that is contained in such a small book.
- soli Deo gloria -

Building on the themes of "Calvary Road," the Hessions still focus on the believer's bondage, and show how Christ has freed us of the yoke which is around our necks (soul and spirit). If you haven't read The Calvary Road, you can still gain a great deal from this little book, and possibly then you can read the original.

A good read!!!

Rarely does one find a book so edifying and so focused. A must read for anyone seriously seeking Jesus Christ

We have been reading this book every night before going to sleep and it has been great. Being written decades ago, I am so surprised at how relevant this book is for today. One main point is that everything we "need" is found in Jesus alone. That is a very relevant message for my materialistic and over-prescribed life.

This book, apart from the Bible, changed the way i view, myself, life and God. This book and the Bible is all you need, seriously, I have read tons of Biblical commentaries, haha. Love it. Jesus is the end we are all looking for but don't always want. He is our life, our way, our truth, He alone. Remain in HIM brothers and sisters, for apart from him you can do nothing.

Very simple and easy to understand, you can grasp the truth in this book. I suggest for all to read it. The book will show you the truth and allow you to see the richness of God's love and the work of the Master. Read it and see Jesus today!!!
