Jesus Wept

This was such a emotional written book. I could feel the pain and the joy in this book.

The Lord healed me after I read "Jesus Wept'' by Bruce Marchiano.

I was very sad and my heart hurt for years because someone very close to me had become a drug addict. During this time the Lord led me to read "Jesus Wept" by Bruce Marchiano. I read about Bruce's experience of portraying Jesus in the film "The gospel according to Matthew". Through this experience, Bruce learned about Jesus' heart of compassion towards hurting people. In the book, he gives some beautiful illustrations of Jesus' compassion and how Jesus weeps with people who are weeping. This book was life changing for me, because through it the Lord has taught me to deal with my pain through prayer. Because of this, Jesus has given me so much healing. I recommend "Jesus Wept" to everyone especially those who are hurting. Also for everyone who loved Bruce's presentation of the joyful Jesus in the film "The Gospel according to Matthew", I recommend that you check out the plans for his next film "The Gospel According to John".

In our brokenness and pain, He weeps...

John 11:35, "Jesus Wept." (NIV) Jesus, after seeing Mary and Martha weeping, was deeply moved in spirit and troubled, the bible tells us, and He wept. For anyone and everyone, this book, "Jesus Wept" by Bruce Marchiano opens up a deeper understanding of what that scripture is talking about - about the heart of Jesus. In the way God has gifted him, Bruce Marchiano brings scripture into today's reality of brokenness and pain. When we hurt, He knows and He is with us. As other reviews have noted, from the most individual pain to the global-sized disasters, Jesus weeps. He weeps and He holds. He is with us always - This book opens up that reality to the reader, and explains why, things may happen the way they do. Pull up a comfortable chair, rest by the fire, and spend some time with the Heart of Jesus: "Jesus Wept." Jesus: He's there for you, and with you - always. Thanks Bruce, you've done it again!
