Confronting Jesus

9 Encounters with the Hero of the Gospels

By: Rebecca McLaughlin

Narrated by: Rebecca McLaughlin

Award-Winning Author Rebecca McLaughlin Explores Who Jesus Really Is in This Follow-Up to Confronting Christianity

Jesus is the most famous human being in all of history. But while many people have a basic sketch of Jesus in their minds, comparatively few have taken time to read the four biographies of his life in the New Testament Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

In Confronting Jesus, Rebecca McLaughlin shares important biblical context to help all listeners see why the Gospels should be taken seriously as historical documents. Exploring eyewitness testimony about Jesus, McLaughlin points to him as a first-century Jewish man who is the Son of God, King of the Jews, mighty healer, greatest teacher, lover of sinners, suffering servant, perfect sacrifice, and universal Lord. This follow-up to her first book, Confronting Christianity, helps listeners understand the message of the Gospels and explore who Jesus really is. Individuals and groups can work through the audiobook together with the Confronting Jesus Study Guide and the Confronting Jesus Video Study.

Superb

This book is for those who question who Jesus really was, it’s for those who wonder what relevance He has for life today, and it is for those who already follow Him but want to know Him more.
It is written and read thoughtfully and clearly a great deal of time and reflection has been given to it. The illustrations are current and j helpful.
It is easy to listen to, and thought provoking. Definitely worth your time!
