Synopsis

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT IT WOULD BE LIKE TO MEET JESUS FACE TO FACE? Come and take a journey back through time. Find yourself in ancient Israel, on the dusty road of a bustling village. The crowd begins to stir and you hear the excited murmur, “It’s the rabbi!” You see him now too, the one called Jesus. He pauses right where you are standing and - in that vast crowd - it’s your eyes he looks into. Feel the healing in his touch as he reaches out to you. Hear the love in his whispered words. This collection of stories is based on the lives of people who encountered Jesus during his time on earth. Since the stories are told through the eyes of these individuals, readers are transported right into the heart of familiar Bible scenes, to experience the person’s life-changing moment with Jesus in a wonderfully unique way. Each story ends with a reflection and prayer, inviting readers to draw into their own intimate moments with Jesus.
