Amazed: Why the Humanity of Jesus Matters

We are made in God's image. God provided rules for healthy living and a sacrificial practice as a means to worship him. Yet we chose to separate from God and go our own way–we couldn't follow God's rules without messing up.

Enter Jesus. He came as a man, in the same image as we are created. He lived a sinless life and is the only effective sacrifice to pay the price that we deserve for our hurtful choices. Richard Bahr's book, Amazed: Why the Humanity of Jesus Matters, helps unpack how Jesus lived out his humanity–and how that humanity helps us connect to him and the Father more effectively.

Richard Bahr is a business owner and also operates a ministry with his wife, Carla, called Threshold to New Life (www.threshold2newlife.org), helping those who live with little margin to keep the housing they have. Richard is deeply involved in serving the homeless and poor in Minneapolis by serving meals and providing clothing and other necessities, but most importantly his friendship. Proceeds from this book will work to fund the ministry.
