Truth has a hard time making its way to the heart without the assistance of beauty. That is why the Gospel stories are written the way they are - full of beauty. Unfortunately our focus on truth has often excluded beauty, leaving many of us half-hearted creatures, full of knowledge that has not made its way to the heart, disrupting worship and growth.
Without sacrificing truth, this "portrait" of Jesus re-tells the death and resurrection accounts with the staggering beauty of the Savior front and center and everything else faded into the background. The aim of this book is not to inform, apply, or prove anything, but to display the beauty of Jesus in a way that moves truth from head to heart. Its ultimate aim, in other words, is worship.
