Finding Jesus Christ in the New Testament and Finding Jesus Christ in the Old Testament are collections of short yet insightful quotes that are gathered from various acclaimed Bible scholars originally shared on the Follow Him podcast. The books chronologically journey through the Bible with each scholar highlighting a set of chapters and stories. The scholars repeatedly illuminate the hopeful and omniscient character of Jesus Christ amidst this record of human trial and tribulation. As we strive to see more of Him in their lives, it will help us see more of Him in our lives. Each time you read a quote from these books, you will leave with a new perspective of God, yourself, or the world.
