Description

Stories of Jesus provides a portrait of Our Lord in a day-by-day reflection format, based on the Gospel accounts of his life and teachings. Girzone introduces Jesus and his adult ministry – from his baptism by John the Baptist through his public life to his death and resurrection. Each day opens with a passage from one of the Gospels, followed by an imaginative retelling of the story found in the scriptural text and a brief prayer at the end. The 40-day format allows readers to use this book for Lent or at other times of the year to make a "retreat with Jesus." This creative approach to the life of Jesus will inspire a sense of God's Son as someone who is a constant companion as we walk through our own lives, one who understands, guides, and loves us with deep affection. 5 CDs.
