The Desire of Ageslays out the life of Christ so intimately that the listener will feel as if he or she were walking the paths of Galilee with the master relaying a parable, or sitting on the Mount of Olives watching the agony of our Lord. At its heart, the book is devotional saying to the listener that Jesus Christ fulfills the deepest longings of the human soul. "Without distinction of age, or rank, or nationality, or religious privilege, all are invited to come unto Him and live."
