Book Description
Ultimate fulfillment in life comes by choosing to live by the life principles Jesus modeled for us as the Son of Man. This book reveals those principles and demonstrates that if followed by believers, our lives can be an unending adventure of experiencing the supernatural intervention of the Creator of the universe in all our mundane, daily circumstances. Jesus' earthly life stands unique in human history as the pattern for all Christians. Most of us have many mentors in our lives, but they can never take the place of the one and only role model.

Your Greatest Challenge, Your Ultimate Fulfillment!
Ultimate fulfillment in life comes from choosing to live by the life principles Jesus modeled for us as the Son of man. In Jesus the Model, beloved Bible teacher and missionary Joy Dawson reveals those principles and demonstrates how, if they are followed, all of the mundane, daily circumstances of life can become an unending adventure.
Dawson removes the distorted views of Jesus that have been accumulating over the centuries, giving a biblical, balanced view of Him as both lion and lamb. Among many other powerful truths she shares, you will learn:
· How to get your life's priorities in order by aligning them with the priorities of Jesus.
· The three categories of ministry Jesus used and how you can know how your ministries line up with His.
· How Jesus' incredible humility permeated everything He did on Earth and why He has such a revulsion to anything that is not radically real.
Most of us have many mentors in our lives, but they can never take the place of the one and only role model. Romans 8:29 says that God's primary purpose for our existence is that we may be conformed into the image of His Son. What a project for God! What a goal for us!
