Rating:  Summary: Getting back to reality with our Savior. Review: This has surely been a journey and it seems I need to go even further. Let me explain. I was stopped in my tracks as I couldn't take my eyes off the cover photo of the Plain Truth magazine. There was something too odd with it. IT came too close to my vision of how Jesus must have really looked. (I never bought into the porceline doll, divine, almost fragile look) Purchased...read the first few paragraphs and I gasped for breath at the passion this ordinary guy wrote with. Even in that article I fell in love. Decided on the spot that this was a must read. (I had a Spirit filled experience while producing and writing a compassion driven short movie as well. I also did most of the behind the scenes photography so I wanted his "JESUS, yesterday, today, forever picture book.)Let me tell you when I got the books in my hands, I was right. I couldn't put them down. This was too real to be true. How can I say this...I want to hear ALL of the stories over hot chocolate one day, Bruce. He has become like a true Christian friend. Deeply grounded in Our Savior and his love for even the least of us, and screaming it across the world! From the looks of all the reviews all over the internet...we are all in one accord in the spirit of this most effective ministry. The Word of God does not return void when interpreted and inspired realistically. God Bless all the endeavours of this magnificent team and keep them away from the evils and corruptions of their inevitable fame. TO GOD BE THE GLORY AS BRUCE IS DOING SUCH A MARVELOUS JOB WITH. Now I've just got to get my hands on the audio tape and visual bible - Matthew, Acts and the Great Storyteller. Lastly, please listen to Bruce when he reminds us all to check it back to the Bible YOURSELF! Don't just take his word for it, the Bible was trying to tell Hollywood for a long time...Jesus was and still is very real! HE LAUGHED AND LOVED AND WEPT AND PLAYED WITH CHILDREN!

Rating:  Summary: A remarkable description of a close relationship with Christ Review: Watching the movie and reading the book, Bruce displays a closeness to the Lord like none other I've ever seen. The book is captivating and it inspiring.
Rating:  Summary: A must read! Read it BEFORE you watch the movie! Review: What can I add to the other reviews except AMEN! I have both the paper AND auido copy of the book. Bruce tells how at the end of filming he wrote in his journal " I"ll miss Him (Jesus)" and how that seems a silly thing to say, yet I felt the same way when I reached the end of Bruce's book. While reading it I felt somehow a part of the wonderful miracles that happend while filming was going on. It makes me want to cry even now to think of it. THANK YOU BRUCE, for being willing to share what must have been some of the most personal, vulnerable moments of your life. I'll never read Matt. 23 the same again. If you ever get the chance to listen to Bruce talk about this in person take it. I hope do.
Rating:  Summary: In the Footsteps of Jesus Review: Wow! Just finished reading this awesome account of what it could be like to walk in the footsteps of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I could not put the book down and found myself reading many passages over and over. Reading Bruce's account of living the pages of the Gospel of Matthew was a wonderful blessing and I found myself moved to tears many times. I loved this book and look forward to reading his next work! Thanks, Bruce for being obedient to God's work in you.
