{"product_id":"9781479748785","title":"from JESUS, with LOVE","description":"“from JESUS, with LOVE” written by Jim Kenney, shows us a Jesus who understands and cares. Based on a careful reading of the gospels this book is an imaginary series of letters from Jesus to you, the reader. But is it imaginary? To Jim, as he explains in the introduction, these letters came to him as a message to the heart.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e What is different about these devotions on the earthly life of Jesus is that they are written in the fi rst person, much as Paul’s letters to the early churches were. So the first letter begins, “My Mum … was already pregnant with me when Dad married her.” We experience the trauma of a young child tormented by his peers and beginning to doubt his legitimacy but then discovering the marvel of his true parenthood. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We hear of the long wait in obscurity and the power of temptation. Each letter is a devotion in itself, but taken together they reveal to us a Jesus who, for all that he is God in the flesh, yet is one who struggled through our common trials, -someone who truly understands. As each letter ends Jesus speaks directly to our heart in an affirmation of His care for each of us.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Geof Galbraith, Combined Churches Committee, Beechworth","brand":"Xlibris AU","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47166114201840,"sku":"9781479748785","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781479748785_p0.jpg?v=1763617545","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781479748785","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
