In Awesome!: Exploring the Nature and Names of Jesus Dick Eastman quotes extensively from a multitude of theologians, Christian leaders, and scripture, to describe who Jesus is. There are seven pages of reference citations. Because of the multiple points of view used throughout, I found it difficult to engage with this book.
Written in a 31-day format, set with a specific nature of Jesus for each day, the chapters conclude with four steps to go deeper in your study. Explore, Experience, Express, and Exalt.
One thing I found useful in Awesome! was the author’s inclusion of 868 names, or expressions, describing Jesus in alphabetical order beginning with A to Z and ending with Zion-Dwelling God.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Bethany House for a fair and honest review, which is exactly what I gave.
Have you read this book? If so, what was your impression of it?
You can find my August Inspire a Fire post here. Please stop by and read it.
I wish you well.

I agree with your assessment. Will continue for the 31 days cuz I think it’s mainly focus on who Jesus is or an encouraged me to reread some very familiar books like John
