Description
Book SynopsisAn amazing collection of six little books that let us listen in on real conversations Jesus had with real people, all in the Gospel of John
Six people – and their conversations with Jesus in the verses of John’s Gospel – are examined in this inspiring, thoughtful slip–cased collection on Christian belief and the meaning behind Jesus’ words. Each volume focuses on a specific theme, and is written in direct, simple language designed to help Christians find guidance in their lives across a range of topics, including:
- Truth and Jesus’ words with Pontius Pilate during His trial
- Suffering, and the conversation with the lame man healed by the pool of Bethesda
- Religion with Nicodemus the Pharisee
- Hope and His conversations with Mary Magdalene
- The nature and consequences of Doubt, with Thomas the Apostle
- The nature of Relationships, from Jesus’ conversation with the woman at the well
Each of the hardcover books in the six–volume collection are pocket–sized, making them easy and durable to carry in a purse, backpack, or briefcase for daily inspiration. The complete passage each book examines is included, as well as “Cast” and “Setting” notes for who was involved and where each conversation happened, short paragraphs on the meaning of Jesus’ words, and a page of Endnotes for further reading.
Perfect for new Christians – and for believers wanting to re–examine Jesus’ words that He shared with the people of His time – Conversations with Jesus is an indispensable resource for making Christ and his teachings, and his conversations, more ever–present in our daily lives.
Trade ReviewThe writing is simple but by no means simplistic; the tone is warm but not sentimental; the gospel call is winsome but never lacking in challenge. I warmly recommend that you buy these books, read them for your own encouragement, and then consider which of the non–Christian people in your life you will give them to.

In an increasingly complex and, to some degree, daunting world Dave Helm is a sense–maker. So in each of the areas: Religion, Relationships, Suffering, Truth, Doubt and Hope, you’ll find the echo of your questions and the timeless unpredictable wisdom and rebuke of the Galilean. My plea is that you can make time to engage with what couldn’t be more important.
-- Rico Tice (Evangelist; Co–founder of Christianity Explored Ministries)
The church in western society has never had a greater need for books like this to give to inquirers who are open to considering what real Christianity looks like. These six short studies are gems of lucidity. Use them!
