Customer Review (rating=*****): "Max Lucado uses everyday life situations so that you can experience each emotion that our Saviour felt in his walks. When reading this book I was able to understand some of the pain, struggles and joy that Jesus felt. I applied past experiences in my life to understand how he must have felt when he was rejected by those that loved him and cast aside by those that once called him their friend. I would recommend to everyone to purchase this book, especially those who want a better understanding of what our Saviour endured for the love of his own."

In the Grip of Grace (paperback, large print)
In the Grip of Grace
Customer Comment: rating=9: Lucado uses Romans 7 to explain true grace. This book begins with a typical Lucado style, but quickly turns to the true meat of the Bible. Using real life examples, he turns Paul's cry of frustration and subsequent explanation of grace in Romans 7 into something that I could understand and see just what was happening in my own life. Now if he would only do a book on Romans 8. -Chris Flanders

G.D.
Just the Way You Are
Customer Review (rating=*****): "Max Lucado is a master of words. His latest children's book, "Just the Way You Are," is incredible. It is the story of 5 children trying to impress the King (in this case the analogy points to God) by their many talents and skills. One girl doesn't think that she has any talents or skills, but she does have a good heart. In the end, that is what counts the most to the King (God). If you like analogies, than you will absolutely love this book!"
Lucado 3 in 1: In the Grip of Grace/When God Whispers Your Name/Applause of Heaven (hardcover)

Max really knows how to let God speak through his writing in such a way that if a person reads his writing with an open heart they will feel like they are on their face in front of the Almighty. I highly recommend this book to Everyone."
No Wonder They Call Him the Savior : Chronicles of the Cross
No Wonder They Call Him the Savior (hardcover)
LivRite Review: rating=10: Lucado unveils the heart
behind Jesus' death on the cross. No other book I have ever read connected me emotionally to Jesus the way "No Wonder They Call Him Savior" did. Tears came fast and furious, but they were mostly tears of awe and powerful love in response to His revealed love for me. My commitment to my very committed Lord was deepened tremendously. The message is short and to the point and it pierces the heart with accuracy. This is the book I routinely buy for new babes in Christ and those who are struggling in their walk. As far as I'm concerned, this is a MUST READ for all Christians.
