Elvo Fortunato Bucci

about this book: An idea came to me: what would it be like to know Christ today? To meet him in this day as a friend. And then to discover, as if for the first time, the truth of his mission through his words and his actions. I developed a scenario where Jesus Christ was taken from the world two thousand years ago and never fulfilled his destiny. Then, another man steps into the void to bring the word of God. That man is Emmanuel – the Deliverer. Book one, "A Modern Day Story of Christ," tells of his teachings and his miracles, of his persecution and his death on a cross, and of his rising to new life.

This second book, "Faith Wins," is the story of the apostles as they set out to fulfill their commission to make disciples of all people. "Faith Wins" incorporates biblically accurate pericopes of each book and epistle of the New Testament woven into one compelling story of faith. Without the apostles, Christ would be dead to all of us living today.

Christianity is declining precipitously among the young. If that trend continues, Christ will be gone from the world in generations to come. "Songs of the Deliverer" is written to create an engaging and contemporary way for people of all ages, but particularly our youth, to know Christ.
