Jesus of Nazareth is one of the most attractive people of all time. But who is he really? In his lifetime, he gathered around him 12 disciples who walked with him -- literally -- for three years. Today his nominal followers number in the billions. But how many actually walk with him today?
This 1025-page book examines -- thoughtfully and in considerable detail --
each event, each teaching, and each parable contained in the Gospel of Luke. Nearly 6,000 people studied this material as an interactive online Bible study over three years. Each of the nearly 120 lessons became another step
a journey toward discipleship known as a JesusWalk. The study is designed to develop people into committed, trained disciples of Jesus Christ.
You may use it as the basis of your own personal Bible study, for a small group, for a Sunday school class, or as the basis of a preaching series. In fact, there's enough material here for more than two full years of lessons or sermons. The Greek words are explained and obscure customs illuminated, all footnoted for those who want to explore more deeply.
More important than anything else, the author has taken pains to understand the real point Jesus was trying to make in each instance and to help modern-day disciples grasp those points in a deep and life-changing way. Each lesson includes a number of
thought-provoking discussion questions that focus on applying in
our everyday lives the main points of the lesson.

commentary on Luke. I teach a Sunday school class in my church and we've been studying the Gospel of Luke for several months.
Your study has been invaluable and so applicable to life today." -- Ann O. Campbell

the Gospel of Luke. Your writing penetrates below the surface
of the text and exposes the heart of the Lord Jesus in his
conversations and confrontations. You have been blessed with
great insight." -- Pastor Nathan S. Eldridge
"I treated myself to your e-book for Christmas. I just wanted
to tell you what a gifted writer you are. Thank you for
helping me understand scripture better than I ever have
before. I teach in a Catholic school, and you help me in my
ministry to the children because you make the gospel clearer to me."
-- Nancy Ritzel

weekly basis for the past two years... Of all the online
commentaries I've found, yours helps me the most. I find
your commentary balanced, full of common sense and plainly
stated." -- Bill Judt, Saskatoon,
Saskatchewan, Canada
"I have used your Luke series as a guide to teaching Sunday
school. I am finishing up my second quarter of teaching using
this material and would like to go one more quarter. I have
totally enjoyed the material and so has my class. I have
gotten many comments on how great the class has been.
Thanks." -- Howard McCraney, Church of Christ, Alabama
