Customer Reviews

I love Max Lucado's books. Especially this one.

The Cross took my breath away and made me cry at the enormity of Christ's suffering on the cross for us, his creation. I would recommend it to anyone who loves Jesus and those who don't know Him as their Savior. The writing is wonderful and the illustrations are beautiful. I am so glad you had this book in stock.

I loved it ! Heartfelt & Inspiring !!!

Very heartfelt & inspiring...... A perfect Easter Gift. I will be ordering additional copies as gifts.

The ultimate gift

This is a beautiful account of the most precious gift we have ever received. If your heart is no longer broken, or never has been, by the gift of Jesus, this book is for you. My heart was pierced by the crusifiction all over again and I wept for the greatness of Jesus' gift to me. I would recommend this book to everyone... christian or not. It will make you see things in a whole new light.

The Cross--Beautiful and Inspiring

Max Lucado presents a lovely gift-sized book of The Cross. The book is filled with inspiring and beautifully photographed crosses that grace the pages. my favorite is the two branches naturally conjuctioned by nature in the form of the Cross. It reminds me that in God's wonderful creation tells us-He gave His Son, Jesus' Life for us. It's echoes everlasting in all living things. It celebrates the ancient sign of salvation and hope. Each picture is supported with an inspirational thought that comes from Lucado's books realting to Jesus' crucifixion, including 'And the Angels Were Silent,' 'God Came Near,' 'Six Hours on Friday,' and 'No Wonder They Call Him the Savior.' This would make a beautiful Easter (Resurrection Day) gift for anyone who has a love for crosses or wanting inspiring words to comfort the soul and a remembrance of Jesus' Love gift for us.

This Book says it all

The greatest lesson I learned from this book is that God did not hestitate when Adam and Eve sinned, he was rushing to save us just as a Father would dive into a lake to save a drowning child. The Cross was not the mark of a failed Christ, rather the symbol of freedom for all that choose to follow him.

I have now been given the clearest view of the cross of Jesu

Mr Lucado writings and the illustrations bring into view the extravagant price that Jesus paid for my sins. Mr Lucado's writings ,as usual,are able to draw you into the circumstances he is describing as though you had colored photographs expressing emotionals and thought provoking scenarios. . Never before have I been given this sharp and clear view of the cross that our Lord and Savior willing died upon. The pictures, illustrations and paintings are not just window dressing - they literally engage you.This is an object that will, as Mr Lucado wrote, "bring you face to feet" with the One who proclaimed to be able to save us from our sins.
