Insightful cultural and historical details will enlarge your understanding of the Passion of Christ.
"I have invited Jack to Hawaii several times to speak at our ‘How To Walk’ conferences and he is always one of the best received presenters. His down-to-earth communication skills have been transferred to 'The Jesus Chronicles.' An excellent resource for the Bible student or to simply curl up with a good book about Jesus on a rainy day."

"Jack Abeelen's book, 'The Jesus Chronicles', was a real blessing for me to read, and I know it will bless many others. Jack is a great storyteller and he tells the story of Jesus with clarity, practical application, and good scholarship, while at the same time communicating with a warmth and comfort that gives the reader an up close and intimate personal contact with Jesus. You can open this book to any page, read for a few, and get to know Jesus a little bit better. I highly recommend this book, as a study resource, or as a devotional tool. You will pick it up again and again."

"Frankly I was pleasantly surprised with this new book, 'The Jesus Chronicles'. It’s a fresh look at an age-old dilemma—the chronological layout of the gospel record—but this one is far different than most other tomes. Jack Abeelen doesn’t merely harmonize the synoptic accounts and John’s gospel to tell the story. He follows the flow of Jesus ministry applicationally, not just chronologically. I love books on the life of Jesus and I have loved seeing Jesus through Jack’s clear eyes and ready pen."
