A Year with Jesus, written by R.P. Nettlehorst, has been a
pleasure to read.
As the name implies,
this book has a bible teaching (based on Jesus’ words) for every day of the
year. I have not completed reading this book yet, because I am reading it the
way it was designed to be read—day by day.
But from what I
have read so far, A Year with Jesus
is a well-written book full of encouragement for Christians everywhere. Each
date starts with a passage from the Gospels. This passages is followed by an
explanation by the author. Mr. Nettlehorst has a talent for explaining Jesus’
words in light of the time period from which he lived. I think that the entire
New Testament, including Jesus’ words—is so difficult to understand if you are
missing the historical context to the text. Nettlehorst provides that missing
link.
In the process, he
gives you true comfort. I imagine that Jesus would be (or is) truly happy with
Nettlehorst’s book. --
