But what the world wants to know is this: Why did he come and what difference does it make?

There's so much to like here! Short daily readings that focus the reader on Christ and His coming into this world to save sinners in such a wonderful and awesome way. I highly recommend Why He Came.
Short daily devotionals each filled with reasons Jesus came to earth to die for us. Very impactful and to the point. Daily Scripture verses accompany the reading.
