Rating: Summary: Inspiring Review: I was moved as I read Michael Card's reflections on the crucifixion of Christ. He makes the crucifixion not only a theologically necessary event, but a personal action taken by the Father and the Son to restore us to a relationshiop with them and to demonstrate the amazing love they have for us. As I read, I felt like I was a witness to the events surrounding the trial and crucifixion of the Lord. Michael describes in detail the events leading up to the crucifixion, the suffering that Jesus endured, and the victory that was won. An amazing book! I would highly recommed it. What an awesome book to read as we approach the Passover and Easter season.

Rating: Summary: This book will give you new insights Review: Michael Card does an excellent job of describing the passion of Christ. This book provides plenty of devotional thoughts, but the highlights for me were the several places where I learned something new about the crucifixion. Card adds the input of a scholar to this work.

Rating: Summary: A great book about "The Passion of Christ." Review: This book is great. Timely and relevant, even prophetic (It was published in the year 2000).In the introduction to the book Michael Card asserts that if any one was to really make an acurate movie about the last few hours of the life of the Messiah that "the blood and gore and pain of the crucifixion would certainly get an R-rating on the screen." When explaining the point of his book, Card says that it is to "help you see the cross for what it is: on the one hand, the scene of the violent execution of the Son of God and, on the other, the source of His limitless grace." I was, and I am still, moved by this book.
Rating: Summary: A Violent Grace Review: This book opened my eyes to what Jesus Christ actually went through to give us grace. Michael Card is an inspired song writer, and he is just as talented an author
Rating: Summary: A Violent Grace Review: This book will not only take you to the cross, but will take you through the agony that led to that horrible place. Michael Card brings the story of Christ's torture and crucifixion to life in this wonderful book. You cannot go away from this book without having your love for Christ, and the work he did for us on the cross, renewed. If you truly love Christ, this book will bring you to your knees in adoration for what He did to save His people from their sins.
