We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Just Give Me Jesus" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
How did the apostle John know that, two thousand years after he lived, your life would need a fresh touch from God?
How did John know that, at the beginning of a new millennium,
our lives would be so busy,
our focus so divided,
our bodies so tired,
our minds so bombarded,
our families so attacked,
our relationships so strained,
our churches so programmed . . .
that we would be desperate for the simplicity and the purity, the freedom and the fulfillment of a life lived in Jesus name?
John probably didnt know. But God did. Thats why He gives us Jesus! And thats why, as Anne Graham Lotz reveals, Johns eyewitness account of Jesus life is unmistakably relevant to your life today. The same Jesus who turned water into wine is the One who provides for your needs at this very moment. Enter into His life and find your soul refreshed with Living Water.
This new edition of Just Give Me Jesus contains an in-depth devotional guide to help you explore the words of John in a personal and practical way, either on your own or in a group. Youll find inspiration and revelation as you study the Scripture more closely and record your reflections in space provided at the back of the book.

M y life in 1999 and 2000 was pressure packed and trouble filled. My husbands dental office, where he had practiced for thirty years, burned to the ground. All three of my children got married within eight months of each other. My son was diagnosed with cancer and went through successful surgery and follow-up radiation. I published two books, Gods Story and Daily Light, as well as TheDaily Light Journal: Morning Readings. I produced a seven-volume video series with workbooks and study guides for The Vision of His Glory. I kept up an intense speaking schedule that included international travel, fulfilled ministry obligations, and gave physical care to my parents, including going through my mothers five emergency hospitalizations within a span of ten months. My ministry, AnGeL Ministries, was going through a transition that increased our yearly budget sixfold so that in the year 2000 we could offer arena events for the purpose of revivalat no charge.
Even now, my duties and responsibilities at times seem overwhelming, and my schedule is overfilled. But I dont want a vacation, I dont want to quit, I dont want sympathy, I dont want money, I dont want recognition, I dont want to escape, I dont even want a miracle!
This book is the cry of my heartjust give me Jesus. Please!

S everal years ago, Andrew Morton wrote a biography of Diana, Princess of Wales. In his publicity tour for the book, he said his information was based on conversations he had had with some of her closest friends. His book sold thousands of copies.
After Lady Dianas tragic death in a car accident in Paris, Andrew Mortons book was re-released. This time he revealed that the source of his information had not been intimate friends of Dianas, but Diana herself. He then produced hours of taped conversation with the princess as proof. And his book sold hundreds of thousands of copies. It made an enormous difference to the reading public to discover the book was not hearsay but what Diana had said about herself.
In the last several years, the market has been flooded with books about Jesus.
His likeness has been on the cover of every major secular newsmagazine. He has been:
romanticized,
sentimentalized,
fictionalized,
criticized,
idolized,
modernized,
popularized,
trivialized,
visualized,
and scrutinized!
So why do we need one more book about Jesus? Because I believe there is a very important and often vast difference between what people say about Him, and what He says about Himself.
Inspired by the same Spirit that lived within Jesus, the apostle John wrote an eyewitness account of His life that is, in effect, what Jesus says about Himself. And this book is my attempt to draw you into His biography, which is also uniquely His autobiography.
Because Johns gospel is so rich and space here is limited, I have been unable to include every passage. I selected the passages I did because these were the ones God seemed to lay on my heartfor myself. I have felt desperate for personal revival in my life, and that need has drawn me back to Jesusto Jesus alone.
