Summary

The woman at the well. The scholar. The tax collector. The young children. The governor. The thief on the cross. People who came face to face with the Lord Jesus. What was it like to see and speak with Jesus during his days on earth? The thirteen encounters described in this book cast bright light on how Jesus treated people then -- and how he relates to us today. As we watch him in action, we also learn how to interact with others around us, whether young or old, male or female, rich or poor, believers or unbelievers. Book jacket.
