Two-time Newbery Award-winning author Katherine Paterson tells the story of Jesus's life with extraordinary clarity and grace, accompanied by paintings as human and reverent as the text. "When the people looked at all the sadness and evil in the world, they had trouble believing that God was in charge. 'God's kingdom,' said Jesus, 'is as tiny as the smallest of seeds, but when it is planted it grows into such a huge tree that the birds make their nests in its branches.'" Newbery Medalist & minister's wife Katherine Paterson retells the life of Jesus in simple, beautiful language for all ages, making the story new again through her trademark generosity and compassion. Iconic images from Jesus's life light the text with the same warmth and directness. A perfect gift book!

Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.

A beautiful and vital exploration of the person and work of Jesus at a time when the church has lost sight of its first love Inspired by over seventy sermons preached by Simon Ponsonby, Amazed by Jesusfollows the life of Jesus from the crib to the cross, meditating on the resurrection, the promise that He will come again, and what this person and His life mean for us today. Emphasizing both the humanity and divinity of Jesus, Ponsonby showcases what is so amazing about Jesus, helping readers to renew their awe and wonder again. Marshalling the multifaceted names and descriptions of Jesus in Scripture-the King of the Jews, the Good Shepherd, the Lamb of God, the Living Water, the Bridegroom, and many more-this book reveals the one who is God come to us, to be God with us, to show God for us. Following Amazing, Ponsonby's poem penned in love as he rediscovered just how amazing Jesus is, Amazed by Jesushelps restore our vision of Jesus and expand it, so we can know Him better and see Him as He is. Jesus changed and is changing everything. This is a clarion call from Ponsonby to the church to return to our first love, to go deeper and truly experience the living water--a discovery that will impact the whole world.
