      Známý jezuita vypráví o svém putování po Svaté zemi a originálně přibližuje osobnost Ježíše Krista věřícím i hledajícím. James Martin propojuje moderní vědecké poznatky o evangeliích a svědectví o své osobní cestě víry, svoji zkušenost s modlitbou a postřehy z četby starých i současných textů, smysl pro humor i životní moudrost. Nepředvádí se, kolik toho ví, ale slouží jediné věci – zpřístupnit hloubku toho největšího příběhu v dějinách: příběhu Ježíše Krista. Odhaluje bohatství a krásu Ježíšových podobenství. Zdůrazňuje, že Ježíšovy mocné činy, uzdravení a zázraky, nás nemají oslnit, ale přivést k poznání Ježíše jako našeho přítele, bratra a Spasitele. Na otázku: „Co nám můžeš říct o Ježíšovi nového?“ odpovídá James Martin jednoduše: „Píšu o Ježíšovi, kterého jsem potkal ve svém životě. O něm se totiž ještě nepsalo.“ Poznávat Ježíše je nikdy nekončícím putováním. Cestou, která může změnit i váš život.
