Here’s What People Are Saying!

“David Glock taught “Life of Christ” for four decades at Emmaus Bible College. It is regarded by his students and colleagues as a classic—and for good reason. He brought to his lectures a love of the Bible and a love for Jesus Christ. We waited for this book for a long time, and its expositional skill, doctrinal depth, and devotional richness have made the wait worthwhile.”

–Dr. David J. MacLeod,
Bible and Theology Faculty,
Emmaus Bible College

“Walking with Jesus gives us in written form the insight that has been gained in forty-three years of Bible study and classroom experience. In clear and plain language, we have here an excellent historical overview of the life of Christ which is both theologically profound and devotionally challenging.”

–Dr. Jack H. Fish,
Bible and Theology Faculty,
Emmaus Bible College

“Thank you to Dave for his great work! His teaching has impacted my life and my children’s lives.”
