Were You There?: Find Yourself with Jesus

by Neil S. Wilson and Ron DiCianni

In his commentary on the letter of James, Hartin offers a unique approach toward understanding a much-neglected writing. Refusing to read the letter of James through the lens ofPaul, Hartin approaches the letter in its own right. He takes seriously the address to the twelve tribes in the Dispersion" (1:1) as directed to Jews who had embraced the message of Jesus and were living outside their homeland, Israel.

Book

This is a wonderful book. Pictures are beautiful. I had the honor of meeting Neil Wilson the author of this book. Any of his books are well worth the read.

Were You There?

I loved this book. The pictures were breathtaking and the stories to go with them were inspiring. I could actually feel what the pictures were trying to convey and consequenttly some even made me cry. I highly recommend this book to everyone and will certainly be purchasing more by Neil Wilson and pictures by Ron Dicianni.

Beautiful

Ron DiCianni's art is very powerful. I stared at the picture on the cover alone for a long time during my devotional time. What makes it so strong, is that he mixes the historical Jesus with real life characters. When I look at the picture of the cross, I realize that *I'm* the one who nailed him to the cross. It was my sins that caused him to die. The picture on page 15 entitled Heaven's Loss is equally powerful. Here, an angel watches over the baby Jesus in the manger. When you look at the angel closely, though, you realize that the angel has a tear in his eye. While the angels probably didn't know God's full plan, this picture really captures how the birth of Jesus changed everything-including heaven. The stories that accompany the art are also outstanding--and well worth the purchase.
