This document summarizes the life of Jesus Christ through a slideshow presentation set to music. It describes how Jesus was born in an obscure village to a peasant woman and worked as a carpenter until age 30. For three years he was an itinerant preacher who never wrote a book, held office, owned a home, or traveled far. Despite having no credentials, the tide turned against him and he was betrayed, tried, crucified between thieves, and buried in a borrowed grave. Though he had a solitary life and death, over 19 centuries later he remains the center of the human race and has impacted mankind more than any other person in history through his one solitary life.

2. —That changed the world!
Adapted from a text by
James A. Francis

3. There was once a
little boy who was
born in an obscure
village, the child of
a peasant woman.

4. When He grew
up He worked as
a carpenter until
He was thirty,
and then for
three years He
was an itinerant
preacher.

5. He never wrote a
book or held an
office. He never
owned a home nor
had a family.
He never put His foot
inside a big city and
never traveled two
hundreds miles from
the place where He
was born.

6. He never did one
of the things that
usually
accompany
greatness.
He had no
credentials but
Himself.

7. While still a young
man, the tide of
popular opinion
turned against Him
and His friends ran
away.
One of them denied
Him. He was turned
over to His enemies
and went through the
mockery of a trial.

8. He was nailed to the
cross between two
thieves.
While He was dying,
His executioners
gambled for the only
piece of property He
had on Earth—that
was His robe.
When He was dead He
was taken down and
laid in a borrowed
grave through the pity
of a friend.

9. Now Nineteen
centuries have
come and gone,
and today He is
the centerpiece of
the human race .

10. I can safely say that
all the armies that
ever marched, all the
navies that were ever
built, all the
parliaments that ever
sat, and all the kings
that ever reigned, put
together, have not
affected the life of
man upon earth as
has that …
One Solitary Life!

11. To many, Jesus Christ is only a
person, a subject for a painting,
a heroic theme for a pen, a
beautiful form for a statue & a
thought for a song; but to those
who have heard His voice, who
have felt His pardon, who have
received His benediction, He is
music, warmth, light, joy, hope &
salvation, a Friend Who never
forsakes, Who lifts us when
others try to push us down. We
cannot wear Him out; we pile on
Him all our griefs & troubles. He
is always ready to lift us; He is
always ready to help us; He
addresses with the same Love;
He beams upon us with the
same smile; He pities us with the
same compassion. He is Love!
