Finding Yourself in the New Testament

by Al Carraway

“I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more
abundantly.”

—John 10:10

Award-winning speaker and best-selling author Al Carraway presents an in-depth study of the
life of Jesus Christ and how it relates to our own in an intimate and personal way. Written by
someone who truly knows God, Finding Yourself in the New Testament skillfully and sincerely
introduces its readers to the Savior and shows them who and what He really is. Not only does it
illustrate how deeply involved God is in the lives of His children, but it also provides an
excellent guide to the history, culture, and context of ancient Israel and the Jewish religion.

Drawing directly from the four Gospels of the New Testament, this book will lead you to the
Being who can give you the power to change; the God “who goes to the hated, the forgotten, the
different, the outcast, the sinner, and the excommunicated and befriends them; the God who calls
them to great things and blesses and loves them; the God who forgives in the act, reaches for
those sinking, and stops for those buried in the crowd or alone in the heat of the day.”
See yourself in every aspect of the Savior’s ministry and in the lives of the people He blessed.
Understand that Jesus Christ truly did come that we might have life—and all else—more
abundantly.

I love that the insights in this book are not your typical Sunday school discussion topics. Al brings a new & refreshing perspective on stories in the New Testament. If you are a Jesus lover, you will love her insights and plethora of one liners. The writing style felt a little chaotic at times and the lack of editing was disappointing & made it difficult to follow. But all of that aside, if you love learning about Jesus, you will love this book!

I love Al Carraway. She is such a good, inspiring example. This was a good companion to my study of the New Testament for this year. I love Jesus more than ever before. So real. Everyday try to act and react as he would. Want him with me all the time. Such a comfort.

Easily one of the best books I’ve ever read. My perspective and understanding of Jesus Christ has shifted in the best possible way. Al Carraway does an amazing job illustrating exact ways that the stories of Jesus relate to our stories today. The truth and reality of a Living Savior is so evident in this book. Will be rereading for many years to come!
