Book Description

Excerpt from Meeting the Master The following studies are designed to show the char acter of Jesus and the practical value of certain of his teach ings, as these are revealed through the personal relations which the Master bore to individuals whom he met in his daily life. Character is revealed and developed in the personal reactions of common life more effectively than in any other way. Therefore one of the surest methods by which to gain an accurate idea of Jesus is to study the way in which he entered into intimate relations with those around him. Jesus moved through a real world of men and things; he was flesh and blood with his disciples and his antagonists. Each person whom he met was in some way a foil, bringing out his own purpose and character. When we see him in these collisions of thought and action, we are able to understand him.
