BU: Each time I reread Jesus Manifesto, I encounter a new facet of the gem that is Jesus. And there is always more…

Amazon Customer: Jesus Christ is front and centre in the writing of this book, it honours Him and connects us to our purpose in so many of the personally unique and wonderful ways our Lord reaches out to each one of us. I’m left thankful and in awe.

Jason Mitchell Weber: I’ve read a few books by Frank Viola but this is the best in my opinion.
“The mystery of God is this . . .
that the One who is the visible image of the invisible God;
the One in whom all the fullness of the Godhead dwells;
the One who is the living residence of the Trinity;
the One in whom eternity lives, breathes, and has its being;
the One who is before time;
the A to Z, Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end;
the Firstborn of the created universe, who rose from the dead never to die again;
the Conqueror of death, sin, and the grave;
the Creator, Savior, Redeemer, and Forgiver;
the One who holds all creation together in Himself;
the One who is the power of glory and might;
the Head, authority, and source of the church;
the One through whom and for whom all things were created;
the One in whom all things find their meaning and reality;
the One who reconciled all things in heaven and earth to God;
the One who nailed to His bloody cross every law, every rule, and every regulation that would condemn the beloved people of God;
the One who is supreme in every realm and holds the first place in all things—the Son of the...

Donna Lee Faglie: The book is definitely worth reading. The authors words propelled me to strip away the old thoughts of who I thought Jesus is and allow the Word of God to point me to Him who is the great I AM. In chapter 1 we are challenged to read ALL of scripture with Jesus in mind. Reading, thinking on each verse of scripture with Jesus as my focus and then taking action with Him in light of the Word changes my perspective, thought processes, my words and actions. There were a few challenges in this book that made me think about what I know the Word to say and that always points to a good book!

david: Jesus Manifesto was recommended to me as possibly the most inspiring understanding of who Jesus is. Having read it once and starting a second time I can say that if anything it is even more inspiring than that.

It reminds us so powerfully to fix our eyes upon Jesus, to look full at His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow srangely dim in the light of HIS GLORY AND GRACE

AN EXCEPTIONAL BOOK

Kindle Customer: The whole thrust of the book is to make the reality of Christ alive to the reader. Not in an academic or orthodox way, but trying to get behind pre-conceptions and encourage a re-commitment to the Christ who is in love with each one of us. It made me re-asses my own faith.

caracasmc: My review will be a little emotional because I can't help be emotional when it comes to my Lord Jesus!

This book is amazing. It points all the arrows of the Christian experience back to Christ. This isn't a book about ekklesiology (although there's a little bit of that sprinkled throughout). It's a book about drawing the hearts of followers of Christ back to the Christ whom we follow. If you call yourself a Christian, you should get this book now and read it over and over. The modern church has become an expert in just about everything; praise and worship, administration, outreach, programs, marketing and technology. But sadly, she barely knows her Lord anymore, her Head, her Life. Jesus is the reason for the church's existence. He's he Head of this body called the church. If we miss Him, we miss EVERYTHING!

There is a leading by the Spirit of Christ in these days calling believer's back to the centrality and simplicity of Christ. Christ became a life giving spirit and it is that Life that we are to live. Not our own life, but His Life...THE Life! Just as the Word of God predicted, in the last days many hearts would grow cold. Something to remember: the church of...
