Emphasizing both the humanity and divinity of Jesus, Ponsonby showcases what is so amazing about Jesus, helping readers to renew their awe and wonder again.Marshalling the multifaceted names and descriptions of Jesus in Scripture-the King of the Jews, the Good Shepherd, the Lamb of God, the Living Water, the Bridegroom, and many more-this book reveals the one who is God come to us, to be God with us, to show God for us.Following Amazing , Ponsonby's poem penned in love as he rediscovered just how amazing Jesus is, Amazed by Jesus helps restore our vision of Jesus and expand it, so we can know Him better and see Him as He is. Jesus changed and is changing everything. This is a clarion call from Ponsonby to the church to return to our first love, to go deeper and truly experience the living water--a discovery that will impact the whole world.

So many people today have the latest technology and unlimited information, yet they are starved and thirsting for an encounter with God. Even Christians. There must be more than this. Yet the Bible tells us we have everything in Christ, and we dwell in the heavenly places with him. How can this be? How do we marry our experience to our theology? This books explores the wonderful paradox that, even though we 'have it all' in Christ, there is more to enjoy.
