For readers looking to experience God's grace and plan of salvation for the first time, or who would like to share the message of hope with someone they know, John 3:16 is the perfect place to start.

Based on Max Lucado's bestselling book 3:16: The Numbers of Hope, The 3:16 Promise is a 64-page evangelistic booklet that journeys word-by-word through John 3:16, the passage Max calls the Hope Diamond of Scripture. This twenty-six-word parade of hope begins with God, ends with life, and urges us to do the same.

Ideal for sharing the gospel with friends and acquaintances, this booklet includes an easy-to-remember explanation of salvation:

• God loves
• God gave
• We believe
• We live

Max's message to readers: The heart of the human problem is the heart of the human. And God's treatment is prescribed in John 3:16.
