John 3:16 is God's Prescription to the Human Problem | Max Lucado

A deep and personal look at the Bible’s most famous verse

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son.“ The words stop us in our tracks. God so loved this world—with its heartbreakers, hope-snatchers, and dream-dousers—that he gave us the precious gift of himself? This is the mind-bending claim of John 3:16.

In this updated classic, bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado pulls back the curtain on this best-known and most-loved verse in the Bible, revealing how it gives hope for the hard heart, invites all to join in its promise, and offers those who will receive the assurance of eternal life.

If you know nothing of the Bible, start here. If you know everything in the Bible, return here. For we need the reminder that the heart of the human problem is the heart of the human—and that God’s treatment is prescribed in John 3:16: "He loves. He gave. We believe. We live."
