LESSONS FROM THE LIFE OF JESUS: PRACTICAL INSIGHTS FROM THE GOSPELS.

By R. Herbert

Rather than simply retelling the story of the life of Jesus, our latest e-book focuses on some of the details of the Gospel narratives that are easy to miss, but which can help us to better understand his life and teachings.  In each case there are lessons we can learn and apply – sometimes with the potential for an effect on our lives that is well out of proportion to the seemingly small detail that conveys the lesson.

Enrich your understanding of the life and work of Jesus and take away lessons you can apply today.  You can download a copy in three formats – PDF, epub, and mobi (Kindle) – to read on your computer or e-book reader.  No registration or email address is needed – simply click and download from our sister site here.
