What Did Jesus Do?: A Crash Course In His Life And Times

Although one-third of people today consider themselves Christians, and millions of words have been written about the "meaning "of Jesus, many of Christ's followers don't know the basic facts of His life: the parables He taught, the miracles He performed, and the remarkable circumstances surrounding both His birth and His death. Using the four Gospels--Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John--as his primary source material, minister and author Michael Lindvall not only lays out the rough chronology of Jesus' life, but he places it within a rich historical context and reveals the major influences that directly affected the early tellings of Christ's story. This is an invaluable reference for anyone--of any religious persuasion--who wants to understand this most important and influential figure.
