Book cover

Jesus: The Way, the Truth, and the Life by Marcellino D'Ambrosio is a book of approximately 200 pages that stands alone but also accompanies the 10-week video study program presented by Catholic experts Marcellino D'Ambrosio, Jeff Cavins, and Edward Sri.

In this book, Catholics walk step by step with Jesus from his infancy to the Ascension. Anchored in the life of Christ as presented in the Gospels, it explores the entirety of Jesus' life-who he is, what he is really like, what he taught, what he did for our salvation, and what this means for us as Catholics today.

This study shows, in a simple way, how Jesus, the Incarnate God, is both fully divine and fully human-his intimacy with the Father, his revelation of the heart of the Father, and his extraordinary influence on his disciples, his followers, and even his enemies.

Most importantly, this encounter with Christ will inspire and empower you to center your entire life in him as you come to know and love him in an ever-deeper and more intimate way.

In this book, Catholics will learn...

  • Who Jesus is and how he answers the longings of the human heart.
  • Why Jesus was baptized.
  • The significance of the Transfiguration.
  • The essentials of Christology explained in a way the average Catholic can understand.
  • The mystery and meaning of the Resurrection, Christ’s triumph over death.
  • The nature of Jesus’ mission and the redemption of humanity.
  • Our role today as Catholics in the Great Commission.

The Shrunken Headsman
An astute summary of the Catholic faith and the church that Jesus Christ established...
Reviewed in the United States on 04-13-2023
Can't say enough about this book that serves as a companion piece to a workbook and DVD series of the same name through Ascension Press. D'Ambrosio does a great job connecting the New Testament to the Old Testament while taking us on a vivid and meaningful journey through the Holy Land. The intent is to give the reader more of a sense of what it was actually like to live DURING the life and times of Jesus and how the various cultures and traditions of the region witnessed the events that unfolded. Simultaneously, the text weaves in many of the major parallels and connections between Old Testament prophecies/events and how Jesus and his apostolate fulfilled them in the Gospels. Even if you were to look at this book with the utmost objectivity, you would be hard pressed not to have a profound epiphany on the historical intricacies on what actually took place two thousand years ago. For Catholics, this book is an excellent way to bolster your knowledge of the first Christians and what our Lord gave us. For Protestants, it will serve to remind and inform just where and how they got the Bible and how every Christian partook of the Sacraments in the church that Christ himself established. And for non-believers, this is a book that will compel you to start taking a harder look at the historical record and realizing just what the first eye-witness martyrs gave their lives for, and it wasn't for illusions or false promises..
