Living into the Life of Jesus: The Formation of Christian Character - Paperback

by Klaus Issler (Author), Calvin Miller (Foreword by)

Why does merely understanding and trying hard to follow the example of Jesus often yield little progress--and even less joy and peace? In this foundational work of Christian formation, Klaus Issler derives insights from the life of Jesus in the Gospels to uncover the dynamics of becoming Christlike. You will discover how you can forge much deeper connections with Jesus so that his life begins to permeate your own character.
