BOOK Consider Jesus: Daily Reflections on the Book of Hebrews

Donald R. Jacobs holds up the book of Hebrews like a mirror and shares daily reflections on how he lets Jesus speak in and through his life. Don's meditations glimpses the way to the peace, power, hope and healing of Jesus as he is revealed in this challenging and enigmatic New Testament book.

These reflections are refreshingly illuminating and candidly personal, clear evidence of joyful devotion to Jesus and deep familiarity with the book of Hebrews. No devotional book that I know is more likely to fix its readers' eyes on Jesus, the perfecter of our faith. An ideal complement to family or personal devotions. --Jonathan J. Bonk, Overseas Ministries Study Center

These practical and personal daily living illustrations arise from Don s wide experiences. The meditations cut across many cultures in Africa and elsewhere. Praise the Lord for this in-depth study. --John G. Gatu, Past Moderator, Presbyterian Church of East Africa
