His Name Is Jesus

Max Lucado has produced a beautiful compilation on the life of Jesus. Max Lucado has written some amazing poetry that touched me deeply when reading the book. He has incorporated scripture to tell retell the amazing life of Jesus. It is easy to focus on Jesus’ Resurrection while forgetting about the sacrifice he made for us. Jesus died by the hands of our sins. Max Lucado has included amazing stories that focus on this sacrifice. Max Lucado also details Jesus’ life from start to finish. He gives us an idea of what Jesus may have been like as a child and then as a man. We are reminded of the blessings we have been given because of Jesus. Jesus’ struggles are written about in the book. This reminds us that Jesus can relate to the pain and trials we all face in our lives. The illustrations are amazing. Although they do not necessarily relate to all the stories in the book, they were eloquently designed. Max Lucado has a way of writing that draws a reader into the story. This book would be an special gift for a person who has just formed a relationship with Jesus. It would also be a wonderful addition to a personal library, to remind us of Jesus’ time spent on earth, and why he loves and saves us. This book is hardbound, and comes in a beautiful box. I was surprised by how sturdy the book is. This book will remain in wonderful conditions for years to come. In my opinion, Max Lucado is one of the most amazing Christian writers. He continues to glorify God in all his books. God has blessed him with a talent, and he has shared it with all of his readers.
