by Larry D. Powell (Author)
Larry Powell breathes life into scripture with a preacher's imagination, a poet's turn of the phrase, and a writer's craftsmanship. He gathers vibrant illustrations from everywhere... but most of all, as you ponder these pages, you will look at Jesus Christ. You will listen to him, meditate on his messages, watch him in action.
