Praise for Knowing You, Jesus

Whenever I find myself at a low ebb spiritually it is to the gospels I always return, and without fail it is there that I find my faith reignited. I am reminded that there is no one in all of history who can compare with Jesus. I find in him the most challenging and comforting person that has ever lived. Therefore I warmly recommend Knowing You, Jesus, a devotional resource that draws us back to the Bible, to Jesus, and to his life-changing comfort and challenge.
