<transcy>Encounters with Jesus (Rencontres avec Jésus)</transcy>
“As we shall see, many other ideas which one might consider valid, noble, even extraordinary, correspond to the exclusive heritage of the Christian faith. So, if you want to make sure that you come up with honest and thoughtful answers to the fundamental questions, you must at least be familiar with the teachings of Christianity. The best way to do this is to study how Jesus introduced himself - himself and his goals - to the people he met, and how their lives were transformed by the responses he had received. 'he brought to their questions. "
