Overview
What if King Jesus is bigger than we know? What if we have barely scratched the surface of who He is? BIG JESUS is a collection of real life stories that provoke a faith-filled pursuit of the knowledge and wonder of Jesus. In each chapter, the boxes we have put around Jesus are exposed. Aaron's personal storytelling is a relatable and enjoyable read about his everyday testimonies that display and magnify Jesus to be bigger than we could ask or think. From life-changing provision, to a laptop battery miracle, to reconciliation that only Jesus could have brought forth, Aaron's approachable and compelling storytelling takes us on a journey that incites wonder and begs the question, "What if Jesus is bigger than the boxes I have put Him in?"
