40 Days with Jesus by Malcolm Duncan introduces the reader to the character and the life of Jesus Christ.
Malcolm keeps his thoughts simple, straightforward and devotional in nature. He wants to warm the reader's heart, praying that the Holy Spirit will stimulate reflection on the life and truth of Jesus Christ.
"My hope is that, as you read, you'll discover for the first time - or you will remember, just how central Jesus is to Christianity. You would be surprised how many people have forgotten that to be a Christian is to be a follower of Jesus Christ. Jesus didn't come to establish a religion, he came to change lives and to deal with the barriers that exist between God and us. He came to save the world. Unfortunately, we Christians are very good at boxing him in. He doesn't like boxes - they feel a little too like tombs and Jesus has a tendency to refuse to stay in those."
Take this invitation to know Jesus better and connect more deeply with him. A short prayer accompanies each section.
