This easy-to-read resource provides readers with an in-depth look at eight qualities of the life of Jesus Christ that made him attractive to so many people. Filled with illustrations, insights, and practical tips, the book develops each attractive characteristic of Christ with contemporary illustrations. Topics covered Jesus stayed spiritually connected and directed; Jesus shattered the stereotypes of "us" and "them"; Jesus liked people and drew out the best in them; Jesus knew his identity, yet served with humility; Jesus spoke God's truth in everyday language; Jesus cast a vision of a better kingdom, now and future; Jesus courageously completed his assigned mission; and Jesus broke the power of darkness so all can live in the light.
An entertaining and comprehensive look at the popularity of, and the need in our culture for, Jesus. The illustrations are a little outdated (1999), but otherwise this was an enjoyable and powerful read.
