EXPLORING THE FASCINATING LIFE OF JESUS
From Matthew to John in ten minutes a day
By Roger Ellsworth. Evangelical Press. 288 pages. £10.99
ISBN 978-0-85234-720-1

In 46 short chapters, the reader is taken from Jesus’s birth to his ascension, using gospel passages. Each chapter takes about ten minutes to read with the idea that it could form a part of your daily Bible reading. The author’s aims are to ‘refresh cooled hearts towards Jesus’ and to help unbelievers discover the truth about Jesus.

Background information for each passage is excellently summarised and explanations of the text are clear and concise. The chapters dig richly into the passage, addressing key truths and doctrines. Dilemmas in understanding some of the texts alongside other Bible passages are addressed, which stretches your thinking, but could potentially confuse non-Christians.
