Here we have a book written to Theophilus, the High Priest. A book on John the Baptist, the Lord's Forerunner as Luke calls him. It is one on the Word of God and it's work not just in John but in all to whom it comes. So whether it is Jesus, John, Herod Antipas, Nicodemus, the Apostles to be, Lazarus or whoever this Word comes to - maybe even you - a response is required and cannot be denied. It is a story of powerful proclamations; hidden conversations; heart-felt friendship; truth seeking and finally reward. It is of a life lived for God and in God. A life in which God expends ALL that is necessary to prepare His cousin for a reward befitting the Lord's Forerunner. Drop in on the many conversations that occurred. Behold the terror and devastation of the Prison that becomes his greatest victory. The confusion when God is silent or chooses not to reveal His depth of meaning. The opposition of those who think they serve God but don't. And the darkness of God's love for His servant, as He outworks His perfect will for him. Behold the Life of a Saint: the Voice of God, John - the Preacher of God.
