Message Gospel of John (The Message) - Tapa blanda

Firsthand Experience. Time-tested wisdom.
Experience Jesus’ life firsthand, the way John did as a young man, and benefit from his deep wisdom, gleaned from decades of following in Jesus’ footsteps.

John was in his late teens or early twenties, wondering what his life would amount to, when he met Jesus. Within a few short years, he experienced the unforgettable events described in this book and considered what his life could be. When he finally wrote those events down, some sixty years later, he knew from experience the transformative power of Jesus’ Message, and he wanted to share it.

As you read the Gospel of John, you’ll begin to see what Jesus could do in your own life. And as you hear Jesus’ words and see what he did, you’ll encounter the extravagant dimensions of God’s love.

Sound appealing? The book you’re holding in your hands can help you to experience the power of truth—of life—in an indescribable, unbelievable new way.

Read what John witnessed as he walked alongside Jesus, the man who has had the greatest impact of all time upon our world—a man whose message of raw truth, pure love, and clear purpose just might radically change your life.

Eugene Peterson’s modern paraphrase The Message: The Gospel of John brings John’s message of transforming hope and life directly to you in today’s language.

Experience God’s message. Find hope. Be changed.

** There’s a translation of Scriptures that this guy Eugene Peterson has undertaken. It has been a great strength to me. He’s a poet and a scholar, and he’s brought the text back to the tone in which the books were written. --BONO, lead singer of the music group U2*

There is so much that is fake about our society. My generation is craving something that is real, honest, and true. The Message is straight up! It’s modern, relevant, and direct. --REBECCA ST. JAMES, recording artist, author
