In the Footsteps of Jesus
Essays On The Contemporary Christian Journey, Volume 1
Richard Gribble, CSC

Walking in the footsteps of Jesus Christ is a tremendous privilege, but a privilege with significant responsibilities and challenges. Following Jesus is a process that begins with the realization that Jesus first calls the believer to walk with him despite the trials of our contemporary society.

In the Footsteps of Jesus provides a method to follow the call of the Lord in the daily walk that all Christians are asked to make. This volume focuses on three themes:
• Jesus Seeks Us
• Responding to God’s Call
• Placing Our Hope and Trust in God

The content of this book will inspire believers in their daily walk with Jesus. Spending 15 minutes in Bible reading along with this companion book will help to provide spiritual guidance for the day. Thought-provoking questions at the end of each reflection will help to challenge the reader, sometimes raising deep and profound issues.

Useful for sermon illustrations, this book will also benefit individual or group study as well as personal reading and reflection.
