The book captures, organizes, describes, and analyzes 172 events in Jesus's life for what those events can teach disciples about following Christ. The book divides those events into eight sections Heralding, Coming, Calling, Ministry, Miracles, Sacrifice, Resurrection, and Revelation. Each section includes the events of Jesus's life that fit in those stages. Each short two-page analysis of each event includes a description of the event, an analysis of what the event might mean for a follower, and an internal reflection illustrating what looking to Christ can mean over the life of a disciple. The book's goal is to give clearer pictures of what looking to Christ can mean, increasing the number, richness, and relevance of the events of Christ's life for followers today. The book should promote the kind of rich introspection through the events of Christ's life that would lead a follower to closer relationship with Christ. What do you think about when thinking about Jesus? What do the events of his life mean to you? How do certain events of Jesus's life encourage, guide, or admonish you as you encounter challenges and blessings in your own life? Rather than simply taking Jesus's words as guides, see his words in the context of his actions, and let that context enrich your spiritual life by drawing you closer to Jesus.
