The Heart of Jesus: How He Really Feels about You
About this ebook
When Christians struggle with sin, they can easily feel that God is close to giving up on them. But in Matthew 11, Jesus describes himself as "gentle and lowly in heart," longing for believers to find rest in him. The good news of the gospel flows from God's deepest love for his people.
In this concise book adapted from the bestselling Gentle and Lowly by Dane Ortlund, readers will encounter Jesus's tender heart for sinners and sufferers. Written for a wide audience—including younger readers, new Christians, and those just beginning to explore the Christian faith—it features easy-to-read terms and helpful explanations. The chapters are also short enough to read at bedtime, around the dinner table, or during lunchtime. The Heart of Jesus dives deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is, comforting and sustaining readers with the affections of Christ for his people.
- Adapted from Gentle and Lowly: Smaller chapters and sentences are ideal for younger readers and busy families, as well as those who might have difficulty reading a longer book
- Provides a Unique Perspective: Confronts readers' typical thoughts on God's heart
- Scripture-Based: Explores passages throughout the whole Bible to give readers a full picture of God's heart for sinners
