The Nazarene

Forty Devotions on the Lyrical Life of Jesus

De: Michael Card

Narrado por: Michael Card

Jesus' life is a song that still resonates down through the ages. 

His deeds and words speak with beauty and mystery, both comforting and confounding us. Who is this man? Over the course of his career, singer-songwriter Michael Card has explored the depths of Scripture by bringing together biblical study and the power of the imagination. Now he sheds light on the life of Jesus through lyrical reflections on the four Gospels. These 40 meditations lead us to a place where Jesus becomes real and we can hear him with both hearts and minds. Listen again to the life of the Nazarene. And discover anew the music of Christ in your soul.

Absolutely wonderful

This is a wonderful devotional book in song and lyrics with commentary. I would recommend it to anyone.

An excellent blend of songs and devotionals.

I deeply enjoyed the song recordings included within the audio book recording. Thank you for the depth of insights interpreting scripture passages from each of the 4 gospels.

notes

ch5 micheal states he sees the magi finding jesus in nazareth. sadily ch2 of matthew dissagrees. the profit states bethleham, and matthews timeline is bethleham, then flee to egypt till harod dies (where jesus would be learning to walk (about a year or so in egypt) then to nazareth. so jesus would be 2 or so by the time he arrives in nazareth... well maybe even 4 since harod decrees all 2yrs and younger.

so, upto 2yrs in bethleham, flee to egypt till harod dies yearish later, return to judea finding brother reins, stop in galilee town of nazareth, thus jesus 2 to 4 yrs old.

the magi could not find him in nazareth due to jesus age/time line, and it would not fullfil the prophecy stated in v5,6 of finding jesus in bethleham which would negate the prophet and jesus.

loved it!

must listen to this one! so very good! don't pass this one up!

Could not finish this book.

The author inserts a good bit of song and it's repetitious. Just could not stay with the book. The book would've been better minus the music. It actually has a good message but I gave up early on because of the songs.
