Message Gospel of John by Eugene H Peterson
Sound appealing? The book you're holding in your hands can help you to experience the power of truth--of life--in an indescribable, unbelievable new way.Read what John witnessed as he walked alongside Jesus, the man who has had the greatest impact of all time upon our world--a man whose message of raw truth, pure love, and clear purpose just might radically change your life.
Eugene Peterson's modern paraphrase The Message: The Gospel of John brings John's message of transforming hope and life directly to you in today's language.
Experience God's message. Find hope. Be changed.
** There's a translation of Scriptures that this guy Eugene Peterson has undertaken. It has been a great strength to me. He's a poet and a scholar, and he's brought the text back to the tone in which the books were written. --BONO, lead singer of the music group U2*
There is so much that is fake about our society. My generation is craving something that is real, honest, and true. The Message is straight up! It's modern, relevant, and direct. --REBECA ST. JAMES, recording artist, author
