Jesus Why the World is Still Fascinated by HimRecommended By: Staci (One of the clever craft ladies at MOPS)
Time it took to read: 2/9- 3/17
Jesus. Love Him of hate Him, He's everywhere. On our T-shirts, bumper stickers, and even the covers of leading news magazines, year after year. We see Him on the silver screen, in the headlines crawl on the TV news, and on the homemade signs held up at ball games. Hotly debated, He remains the most conspicuous figure of all time, even twenty centuries after His inglorious death.
Best-selling author Tim LaHaye and coauthor David Minasian look back through history and peer into the prophetic future to show us why the world's "Jesus fascination" should come as no surprise; every generation since Christ has grappled with the question, Who was He? What does He mean to us here, today?
After reading about Jesus' life, legacy, and pervasive influence, you may find yourself connecting the dots of your own spiritual journey and answering the timeless question that came from the lips of Jesus Himself: Who do you say that I am?
My thoughts: I found this book to be very interesting, but a very long read for me. Could be timing. I think I was wanting mindless read and this is NOT mindless. Written very well and makes you think. The history is good. I've heard LaHaye's other books are very good.
