Jesus

Little Black Books #8

by Scott Petty

It is no exaggeration to say that no army that ever marched, no navy that ever sailed, no government that ever sat, and no king that ever reigned has left as much of a lasting impression on the course of history as this one solitary life.

That life was the life of Jesus. But it’s easy to get caught up in misinformation about who Jesus is, his history, and what he really came to do.

In this latest Little Black Book, Scott Petty clears away the confusion and takes us to the centre of the Bible’s teaching on
who Jesus is, what he came to do, and what he wants for us. Sprinkled with humour, this book will help you understand the difference Jesus makes to life, history and eternity.

Reviews

[Kyle Hoffsmith · Rating 4 out of 5]

Clear. Crisp. Well articulated.

This is a great resource specifically for youth pastors to use with both students who are believers and those who are not!

[Bill Forgeard · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is a great series. Tackles serious topics in very youth friendly style. When my own kids are old enough I'll definitely keep the full set handy.

[Ally · Rating 4 out of 5]

Very clear and faithful. simple and yet he doesn't shy away from complex ideas. i would recommend it to anyone who wants to know about Jesus, not just youth.
