When was the last time you lay awake at night, too captivated by Christ's love to sleep? When was the last time you wrestled with the astonishing cosmic risks involved in Jesus' sacrifice? When was the last time your mind stretched to grasp the many layers of suffering He endured? If it's been too long, The Gift, by Kim Allan Johnson, will put you back in touch with the God who gave everything to make you His.
Through writing that is gritty, vivid, and real, you will witness Christ's majesty and splendor before the creation of Earth, and feel the unspeakable horror of rejection and torture as the Creator pays the ultimate price for your salvation on Calvary. The spectacle of it will take your breath away and comfort you beyond measure. Johnson's riveting portrayal of Jesus' sacrifice will help you reconnect with the power of the gospel and fall in love again with the Savior who would rather go to hell for you than to live in heaven without you.
A reading experience that will leave its mark on your heart forever.
