In her previous books, Beth Moore has introduced her readers to David and Paul. In Jesus, the One and Only , Beth introduces them to an intimate Savior as they get a close-up and personal portrait of the life of Jesus the Messiah.
But this is far more than just a work on the life of Christ. The reader comes to know Christ personally, watching and listening as He breaks up a funeral by raising the dead, confronts conniving religious leaders of His day, teaches on a Galilean hillside, or walks on the waves and calms the storm.

I gladly would have paid for this book though.
Jesus, the One and Only
I thought the book was deeply insightful and I found myself slowly reading through each chapter so I could really chew on and digest the author's comments. I wanted to read through the many Scripture references as well and the author's writing style allowed me to li I got this book as a "freebie" for my Kindle when the author offered it as a special promotion. I wanted to read through the many Scripture references as well and the author's writing style allowed me to live them through her perspective. I realize there are many critics for author Beth Moore and many don't take her seriously as a theologian.
I found her to be very knowledgeable and an excellent communicator. I like and appreciate Ms. Moore's "down-home" take on the Scriptures and found that she really helped me step into the life of Jesus and walk through the Scriptures with Him as if I was right there with Him.

As a speaker, Ms. Moore's southern accent has always bothered me, so it was no surprise that her writing style reflected many of her southern colloquialisms. However, her writing style was much easier for me to adapt to and I felt like I was just one of her girlfriends that she was sitting down sharing her wisdom and thoughts with.
Regardless of whether Ms. Moore is a great theologian or writer isn't the point. Her book points readers towards Jesus which should be the main focus. In fact, in the final chapter in Ms. Moore's own words, she states: Jesus the One and Only was a great read that I would highly recommend!

The Son of God, responded with "I am. How awesome is that? Given the need to meet the needs of a broad and diverse span of Bible students of all ages, one can be forgiving of the simplistic nature of the study guide. Read the book, watch the video DVD , but skip the workbook unless you are a babe in Christ. Dec 28, Isa Lavinia rated it it was ok Shelves: I started reading this book thinking it would be a serious study about the time period and the works concerning the topic.
I was especially looking forward to etymological analysis which I was led to believe from reviews was a key component of the book. Instead I found a personal interpretation of the Gospel of Luke, with an " imagine what so-and-so felt when " every other sentence. Mea culpa, I suppose. I'm sure it must be very inspirational for those looking for such things, but it's not for me I started reading this book thinking it would be a serious study about the time period and the works concerning the topic.
I'm sure it must be very inspirational for those looking for such things, but it's not for me, no disrespect intended. Wonderful Study on Jesus Christ life I love how Beth Moore makes one feel as if they are there in that moment with her additions to scripture understanding. Her studies and devotions always move my heart and strengthen my faith. This study took what I knew about Christ and raised it to another level of deeper understanding. I highly recommend it!!! Apr 02, Adam Balshan rated it did not like it Shelves: It is highly dumbed-down Christology, with oodles of [Myers-Briggs] ENFP, gushing conjecture about unnecessary details added to the biblical story, which are often dubious, and sometimes non-credible.
Original language analysis was non-scholarly and superficial; it sounded like it was regurgitated right out of a concordance. Common knowledge abounds; you won't read almost anything novel 1. Common knowledge abounds; you won't read almost anything novel typically considered the reason for going to the trouble to publish a book in the first place.
It is oddly denigrating to the disciples. A common phrase of Moore's begins, "I'm not sure, but It is the "I'm not sure, but The only good things I remember are one small section about an Isaiah scroll, and perhaps some of the emotion conjectured about Jesus's death and resurrection in the end. Moore's effusive ENFPness has a little to do with my dislike of her book. Perhaps "EFPs" will enjoy it slightly more than my review warrants.

In general, however, I would highly recommend not reading this book unless one happens to have a copy, no other books, and a lot of spare time, or if one operates on a 6th-grade reading level as is apparently becoming the norm in our country and doesn't mind tangential conjecture every paragraph or two. Taking this as a very loose interpretation that doesn't seem well-researched, this isn't a terrible book.
This is probably my favorite of anything written by Moore, but that's honestly not saying much. It was interesting to read, and would add dynamic if reading concurrently with the gospel of Luke. I absolutely would not recommend this as a standalone without extensive prior knowledge of the gospels all four of them. Apr 18, Kelli rated it it was amazing Shelves: Second best to hearing Beth Moore speak, is reading her words. I read this in , and really began to see more clear what Christ did for us much more preciously after reading this book.
I learned so much, because Beth is rich in History and background. My biggest 'want' from an author is, did they do research? All of Beth Moore's books have so much of her heart in them, her love for the Word, and for Christ. Jesus,the One and Only I loved how Beth Moore made the amazing journey of Jesus's life here on earth so easy to understand. I felt she was sitting in a room with me explaining all over coffee.
I laughed,cried,felt deep emotional pain,and even forgiveness. May 03, Terrie rated it it was amazing Shelves: I have so much I want to read, that I have several books going at once. At beginning of each chapter there is a passage of scripture Oct 11, Julie rated it it was amazing Shelves: An Intimate Look at Jesus from birth until His resurrection. Obviously she couldn't cover everything, but she takes significant happenings throughout His life on earth and expounds on them.
I think this book is more effective if you read and talk about it with someone else. Feb 17, valerie rated it liked it Shelves: This was a helpful companion while I was studying the book of Luke. Jul 16, Karen Korb rated it it was amazing. In Jesus, the One and Only, Beth introduces them to an intimate Savior as they get a close-up and personal portrait of the life of Jesus the Messiah.
The reader comes to know Christ personally, watching and listening as He breaks up a fun About The Book: Beth's broad collection of LifeWay women Bible studies covers relevant topics from believing God to be Who He says He is to loving difficult people. Each in-depth study guides you on your faith journey. Beth and husband Keith praise God for over 30 years of marriage. They enjoy traveling, hiking, drinking coffee on the back porch, eating Mexican food, making each other laugh, walking their dogs, and being grandparents.
How can I tell you in just a few short words how Beth Moore inspires me with every single book I have read or bible study I have participated in? I will be honest and say it is impossible.
Yet, within the pages of this particular book author, Beth Moore touches me once more as she takes her reader on a personal journey sharing just how to know Jesus personally. The book is divided into 10 different sections with 53 chapters. Each chapter begins with a Bible verse and focuses on a different aspect of Christ and how we should apply that particular theme to our lives personally. I am a huge Beth Moore fan and this book does not disappoint. As with all of her other books this book was well written and inspiring.
I could not get enough of the message each nugget held for me. When Beth Moore shares Jesus with you it is an intimate relationship that she offers you. She knows her Jesus…. I received this book free of charge from Shelton Interactive in exchange for my honest review. Jun 25, Meagan Myhren-bennett rated it it was amazing Shelves: Luke is unique in his perspective in that he was the only Gentile Gospel writer, he was inspired by God to write this account.
Where the other writers assume the reader is familiar with the culture of the day, Luke focuses on the Jewishness of Christ and the culture in which He lived. Through Luke we see how Jesus was and is the fulfillment of Jewish law and God's promises to humanity. We see Jesus experiencing the human experience living as an ordinary average person. Just as Jesus asked questions, as a child in the Temple, we too should ask questions so that we may come to a greater understanding of God.
Only by seeking answers can our faith grow. But asking isn't enough, we must also listen to the answers. Growth and understanding are not instantaneous and it may take time to understand the answers and how they apply to us. We see through the temptations of Jesus that temptation is not a sign of God's displeasure. When facing temptation don't fight with your words instead do as Jesus did and fight Satan with God's Word.
Through Luke's Gospel we learn that no one goes unnoticed by Christ. Studying the Bible is proof that we are the family of God. The scars of the Crucifixion are a testament of this notice and love that Jesus has for us. Jesus the One and Only has 53 chapters that cover select verses in the Gospel of Luke, every single verse is not discussed, but this in no way detracts from this study. This study is perfect for the individual or in a group setting.
This book will help you to actively engage with God's message and not just sit on the side and watch. We need to seek out seek out God and this book will give you a good starting point to change your life and to become more effective in your daily relationship with Him. I was provided a copy of this book through Shelton Interactive in exchange for my honest review.

Jesus The One And Only lyrics
As He has done in the past, God will use Beth's words to woo you into falling in love with Jesus of Nazareth. Come to know Christ personally. Watch and listen as He breaks up a funeral by raising the dead, confronts conniving religious leaders of His day, teaches on a Galilean hillside, or walks on the waves and calms the storm. Like a ragtag band of followers nearly two thousand years ago, you will not be the same. Read more Read less. Add both to Cart Add both to List.

Please try again later. I was able to borrow the DVD's from our church library, but I bought my own book. There was so much that I wanted to highlight, and it is easier to answer the questions in the workbook. It would be best to do with a study group, but it can be done on your own. This is a fairly thorough introduction to who Jesus is and who we are in relation to Him.
Beth pulls out truths and applications, as well as historical insights, which makes this study very worthwhile, whether you know a lot, or very little, about Jesus.
One person found this helpful. Read this with some friends. We discovered some things in it, that didn't line up with scripture, and led to some good discussion amongst us, and Bible searching for truth, which is a good thing: The portions regarding the enemy were where the most errors were, so as with anything like this, read with discernment and with you Bible at hand. It is one of her older works, and there wasn't enough error in the book to make us not continue to read it thru.
She tends to go off in her with her own imaginings a bit often here, but her writing has heart, and a genuineness in it, and a love for Jesus.
Jesus, the One and Only: Beth Moore, Laural Merlington: theranchhands.com: Books
We would all read it again to be with Jesus in it once more! Seems like I could almost feel the love Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. Seems like I could almost feel the love that the author Beth Moore shares with Jesus. She writes as though she's speaking to each reader personally; I love that gift. This book automatically causes you to love Jesus more and more. A portion of the last "part" was particularly difficult to read because of the topic Christ's crucifixion ; reading it through Beth Moore's perspective would bring tears to even the hardest of hearts.
I also enjoyed the personal stories that she shared throughout this book, giving her readers insight to her passion for the Savior. This is an excellent book as are all of Beth Moore ' s books. It challenged me to look: Beth has the ability to imagine I highly recommend this book but only if you are up to being challenged.
