Summary
"Who do you say that I am?" The question Jesus once asked of Simon Peter has continued to confront men and women through the centuries. Millions have answered with praises; millions have answered with curses -- crying their responses from pews and hospital beds and office cubicles and twenty-yard lines. It's a question that rings as both a challenge and eternal invitation -- and it's one each of us must ultimately ask: Who is this Jesus ... above all? And what ... above all ... does he mean in my life? Michael W. Smith spoke to this soul-searching issue when he performed Lenny LeBlanc and Paul Baloche's award-winning song. "Above All." Brennan Manning now does the same in this thoughtful, passionate meditation on both the song and the Savior.
