GoodBookStall Review:
A narrative based around the words Jesus spoke according (mostly) to the Gospel of John during the 24 hours following the Resurrection. It is given a dramatic twist by being written for the most part in the present tense . This is a slim volume (80 pages) but inspirational and worth reading more than once. It has several uses: as sermon material; as a group study, and for personal meditation. There is an interesting postscript entitled "Inhabiting the scriptures" where Stephen Cottrell explains his standpoint when writing the book.
