Description: What does it mean to belong to God's family?

Consider the Gospel of Luke which introduces us to Jesus, the most important man who ever lived. This book demonstrates that encountering Jesus is a matter of urgency for all people everywhere. In Rich, the Gospel of Luke is applied to a 21st-century audience using contemporary illustrations, including the recent financial crisis.

"Not a safe book. Peter Dickson is a bit sneaky (the book is so engagingly written) and yet terribly stubborn (he refuses to offer you a bland, smooth, mass-market, shrink-wrapped Jesus). So reading it may make you savingly angry or fearfully grateful-either of which will be okay. I find so refreshing this combination of contemporary clarity and old, rugged gospel."
--Dale Ralph Davis

"Peter Dickson has succeeded in transporting his readers from Aberdeen to the shores of Galilee in this vivid account of Dr Luke's impeccably researched biography of Jesus. But I must confess that this journey comes with a health warning - as we look at Jesus we'll discover much more about ourselves."
--Rico Tice

"This is one of the best books of its kind that I have seen. It brings the familiar chapters of Luke's Gospel into the arena of the Twenty First Century, and makes the Christian faith real and relevant. One of the chapters is entitled "The Real Jesus". We encounter him throughout this book. I predict a wide use for it."
--Eric Alexander
