What people are saying

Praise for this book

"What better way to prepare our hearts for Christmas than to do what Russ has done so well in The Advent of the Lamb of God--rehearse the magnificent story that begins centuries before, the magnificent story woven through all of the Bible. The story of how God loves his children and has come to rescue them."--Sally Lloyd-Jones, author of The Jesus Storybook Bible
"When Andrew Peterson sings 'Behold the Lamb of God, ' three worlds collide: ours, Abraham's, and Jesus'. Russ Ramsey's book opens the doors between those worlds and helps us bring them together."--Michael Card, singer and songwriter, author of Inexpressible
"The Advent of the Lamb of God offers readers a sterling opportunity to walk through God's story of redemption. Ideal for personal or family devotions, the stories are told with imagination, verve, and gospel-driven joy."--Dan Doriani, pastor, professor, and author of The Sermon on the Mount: The Character of a Disciple
"Russ Ramsey's Retelling the Stories is a worthy addition to the tradition of scriptural retellings, such as Eugene Peterson's The Message and Sally Lloyd-Jones's The Jesus Storybook Bible. . . . The three installments of the Retelling the Stories series are beautifully written and easy to read without being condescending, simplistic, or taking too many liberties. As a commentary engages the mind, Ramsey's books capture the heart. The stories here, in service to the scriptures, refreshed my soul, gave my heart joy, and lit my eyes. If Russ Ramsey's goal is to help his readers understand scripture better and to have their 'eyes open to the beauty of mercy and grace, ' he succeeds."--Tommy Welty, Fathom Magazine, July 11, 2018
