Knowing Jesus Study Bible, The

No other person has impacted the world like Jesus. In the days he walked the earth, humanity caught a glimpse of God's character. His truth. His power. His white-hot zeal, deep compassion, disarming humility and above all, his boundless love. Today, Jesus continues to change lives. Because he offers more than a philosophy -- he offers new Life.
