description: "What a treasure!"--<b>Lysa TerKeurst</b>,<i>New York Times</i>bestselling author;<i> </i>president of Proverbs 31 Ministries<i><br /></i><br /><b><br />Two thousand years ago, Jesus Christ met face-to-face with people just like you.</b> Broken, imperfect, sometimes fearful and without hope. <i>The Day I Met Jesus</i> is a beautifully crafted narrative that chronicles the remarkable encounters of five women in the Gospels who were desperate to find wholeness, security, and purpose. Like all of us, these women struggled with the regrets of their pasts, the stresses of their presents, and the worries of their tomorrows.<br /><br />Join Frank Viola and Mary DeMuth on a fascinating journey back in time as they retell the dramatic accounts of five women who met Jesus. Each narrative is told from each woman's unique perspective, yet tightly grounded in the Gospel accounts and faithful to first-century history. Elegantly written and profoundly stirring, this book blends creative narrative with uncommon insight, spiritual depth, and practical application.<br /><br />If you are someone who seeks a renewal of hope, faith, and love, <i>The Day I Met Jesus</i> will make your Bible come to life and usher you into a fresh encounter with your Lord.<br /><br /><br />"We all long to lift the veil of history and catch a glimpse of the real story--the one that makes our hearts pound, our faith grow, and our lives change.
