Summary: Great for Study Groups
Comment: This book really helped our study group to better understand who Jesus is. The questions at the end of each chapter help to stimulate discussion. While most of us were already convinced believers, this book helped us to clarify the Christian belief system in an interesting, and exciting way.

Summary: The Claims of Christ - by Barry L. Davis
Comment: Well, I finally finished this book. I spend so much time on the internet I don't have time to even read the newspaper.

The best part of this book is the way Mr. Davis uses everyday life and history and compares it to the teachings and actions of Jesus Christ. Napoleon compares himself and other conquerors to Jesus by showing how Jesus built His "empire" on love while the violence of the other conquerors didn't accomplish nearly as much.

There was the story on how Zacchaeus climbed a tree for Jesus then Jesus in turn climbed a tree for Zacchaeus.

My favorite line though was an explanation of too many churches today when Davis quotes someone as saying: "The church today is raising a whole generation of mules. They know how to sweat and work hard but they don't know how to reproduce themselves."

Summary: The Claims of Christ - Barry l. Davis
Comment: The Claims of Christ by Barry L. Davis is well balanced
concise review of Jesus' ministry on earth. I haven't finished the book yet but I am enjoying this refreshing look on the Life of Jesus and Mr. Davis' analogies to certain points in Jesus' life. I especially enjoyed a story about a woman who blind for 50 yrs. only because she was ignorant of a simple procedure that would get her sight back. It shows the importance of knowledge.

He likens a shepherd sleeping at the sheepgate of a sheep pen to Jesus the shepherd. He likens taking a lamp into a dark place with a Christian witness proclaiming the Word. My favorite line so far is when Mr. Davis says, "One good witness = 3 good lawyers."

I'm just finishing up the book and will write more when I'm done.

God bless you Mr. Davis,

Your brother in Christ,
