Who Is This Man?

The Unpredictable Impact of the Inescapable Jesus

De: John Ortberg

Narrado por: Arthur Morey

The day after Jesus' death, whatever small mark he made on the world seemed destined to disappear. Instead, his impact on human history has been unparalleled, leading believers and nonbelievers alike to ask, Who Is This Man?

In Who Is This Man, bestselling author John Ortberg explores the paradox of Jesus, history's most familiar figure while simultaneously the man no one knows. Who Is This Man traces Jesus' incredible life and legacy from his days on Earth to the present moment, showing us:

• How his vision of life continues to haunt and challenge humanity
• The ways his influence has inspired movements in art, science, government, medicine, and education
• How his lessons about dignity, compassion, forgiveness, and hope continue to influence humanity

Join John Ortberg as he shares how Jesus' influence has swept over history and how his vision of life continues to impact us today.

Praise for Who Is This Man?:

"Sometimes in the clutter and noise of 'religion,' we lose sight of who Jesus is. Once again, John Ortberg helps us do what he does best: he helps us see God as he really is and connect with him amid all the noise. This book is a gift."

--Dr. Henry Cloud, psychologist, coauthor of the bestselling Boundaries books

"We live in a period where the divide between the secular and the sacred has never been greater. Who Is This Man? bridges this gap by sharing in his inimitable and entertaining style the undeniable and profound impact of Jesus Christ on our world. His impact, over two thousand years later, is more profound on the day-to-day lives of people--believers or not--than the impact of any other person at any point in history. John shows how Christ came to teach us how to live and in the process changed the world forever and for good."

--Ron Johnson, CEO, J. C. Penney

The BEST BOOK On Jesus Of The Year

Art, architecture, philosophy, language, government, influence, the elevation of children and women. Jesus life changed the world in EVERY way. The only thing I wish could be different would be if John Ortberg would read it himself. However, the person selected to read it was as close to JO as could be possible. Listen to this and it will change your view of the one who changed the world forever.

A truly inspiring book

Believers and non believers should read this book since it outlines in wonderful detail the magnitude of the influence Christ Jesus had on the entire world from his birth till today. As a believer it was an emotional reminder of the amazing gift we have in Jesus Christ.

Mind blowing!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I don't have the words to explain how good this book it. AWESOME is an understatement.

What did you like best about this story?

It was easy to listen to and It was very informative. The truth told about Jesus days and how that truth affects today is incredible. I sat in Awe (goose bumps, sometime tears) at every end of each chapter. The author is anointed by God. That is the only way he could have written this.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, I had to buy the book as well. Listening and reading, made it even harder for me to spread it out over 2 weeks, so I can study the book after listening to the chapter. I listened/read a chapter a day took a few days breaks on those days of breaks I thought about the book.

Any additional comments?

I can't even begin to tell anyone how awesome it is... They will just have to listen/read it for themselves. For those that don't believe in God/Jesus this is a great book to read. It may not make them 100% believers but it might just make them have more questions.

New insights

This book contains great insights into the change that Jesus brought to the earth that we commonly take for granted. The origins of hospitals, cemeteries, and universities are a few examples. How Jesus changed the culture of our everyday lives beyond the teachings in Christian churches today.

Important book on the Person of Jesus

Other than the Bible, this is one of the most important books on the Person of Jesus.
