Getting to Know Jesus is the perfect devotional for the person who knows some but wants to know much more about the life and ministry of Jesus Christ. This award winning book is designed follow the life of Jesus Christ chronologically based on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The origins of this book were a series of podcasts that author Eric Kampmann and Dr. Chuck Davis, Senior Pastor at Stanwich Church, recorded over the course of one full year. For this book, Kampmann used the content of the podcasts to build a commentary on the passage that provides a deeper look into the accounts of Jesus’ life, ministry, crucifixion, and resurrection.

In addition to the book, Kampmann has provided an index that lists 31 bible or individual studies. The studies include an in depth look at the Sermon on the Mount, the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Raising Lazarus, the Seven Words of the Cross, the High Priestly Prayer, and much more.
