Of all the portions of the Holy Bible, the Gospels are the very heart, since they record the Incarnation of Christ God, His life and mission on earth, His death on the Cross, His Resurrection from the dead, His founding the Church, and His Ascension to Heaven. They contain the actual words spoken by Him. This collection of sermons brings these words to a modern audience in an accessible, reverent, and uplifting style that will appeal to all readers.
