God has blessed us with imagination—a wonderful gift that comes alive when one's words run dry. It's also a tool that enhances the pictures of deeds, events, and the people whose lives were touched by Jesus. In my imagination, I have tried to relive their encounters with Jesus of Nazareth. All my visualizing is based on the Scriptures and historical background. Each person had a special reason to meet Jesus. Each person has left an example for someone in a similar situation. I have attempted to have them tell us what Jesus had done for them. I also hope that the Man from Galilee may draw you into His circle of witnesses. Let these witnesses tell us how they met Jesus. Their stories have convinced me, and I am privileged to pass on their message. - Rev. Daniel A. Kolke
