At the Feet of Jesus: A Guide to Encountering Christ in the Gospels

＂Encounter Jesus Prayerfully with Mary of Bethany. You are in the presence of Jesus. Right now. And he loves you like he loved Mary, her sister Martha, and her brother Lazarus. Like them, we can open our home to him. Like them, we can be befriended by him. This short book is both a guide to prayerful reading of Scripture and an invitation to join one of Jesus’ closest friends as she sits at Jesus’ feet in faith, falls at Jesus’ feet in hope, and anoints Jesus’ feet in love. The exercises in At Jesus’ Feet will help you look afresh at the Lord, draw near to him, and encounter him personally. He is inviting you to ＂choose the better part.＂＂--
