The most famous verse in the Bible, John 3:16, has been described as the gospel in a nutshell. In this short book, Andy Christofides uses this verse as a vehicle to explain what the Christian faith is all about. He writes plainly and simply, illustrating his points by drawing on his training as a scientist, his knowledge of contemporary music, and an enthusiasm for Star Wars.

Here is a down-to-earth book that tells the story of God’s love that has come down from heaven. Its short, pithy chapters can be read in less than an hour, but receiving its message will have profound consequences in this life and the next.
