A Must Read For All

I have not finished the book, but what I have read is extremely informative and interesting. It gives me a personal insight as to who this man was and how his life and teachings affected the worlds progress in many positive ways today. We should have a deeper appreciation for what his teachings have brought about whether or not one participates in any practice of faith based religion. It should be required reading in pubic schools as opposed to "The Diary of Anne Frank"..

Who Is This Man?

Sometimes we lose sight of the huge impact of Jesus on our world. This books reminds us that Christianity is responsible for the creation of orphanages, hospitals, universities and more. It was the first to promote the rights of women and protect female children from murder. Even if you don't believe that Jesus was/is God in human form, you'll have to agree that He changed the world like no other person has ever done.
