No Wonder They Call Him the Savior

No Wonder They Call Him the Savior by Max Lucado is a wonderful book.  This book explores the death and resurrection and brings the events to life for the reader.  Max Lucado writes in a way that is fresh and enables the readers to feel like they are really living in the time of Christ.  The book is divided into three parts on the cross: Its words, Its witnesses, and Its Wisdom.  Oftentimes, we as Christians become complacent and fail to recognize the wonder and awe-inspiring love of Jesus’ death on the cross.  I love Max Lucado’s writing style; it is very conversational and you feel as if you are having coffee with him.  No Wonder They Call Him the Savior is filled with encouragement and hope from the gospel.  I really enjoyed reading this book for my devotions each morning.  This is definitely a book to read if you are feeling unloved, as it will remind you just how much Jesus loves you.  There is also a helpful discussion guide in the back, perfect for Sunday school or a Bible Study.  My one complaint with the book is that I wished there were more Scripture verses in it.  There are some, but I would like a little more.  All in all, it was definitely worth the read.
