Are you ready for an encounter with Jesus?
Why do we seek Jesus? Do we come to Him for insight, direction, encouragement, teaching . . . miracles? Is it because He answers our prayers?
In Encounters with Jesus, J.R. Hudberg probes these questions by examining Jesus's interactions with a variety of people from His day: believers, skeptics, and scoffers, the passionate and the immovable. Each scene allows us to see ourselves with our own needs and concerns and to be confronted with the same choices He gave to those He met then. Maybe the reason we came to Him the first time is not the reason we come now. How will Jesus challenge you today?
