Author Description

On the Road to Emmaus, Jesus opened up the Old Testament to two of his followers. We don’t know exactly what he said, but we do know that the resurrected Jesus explained to them that he was the fulfilment of many things written hundreds or thousands of years before. While we can’t go back in time, we can look at the moments, promises and passages that find their fulfilment in Jesus, giving us a bigger picture of who he is and what he has done. In short chapters, Road Map to Jesus helps us see the greatness and majesty of Jesus and how he really is the one that God’s people have been waiting for. Alistair has managed to walk us through key Old Testament passages, showing how they point to Christ in chapters that are a simple 5-minute read, making this book ideal for a daily reflection, family Bible time or gift for a new believer.

Road map to Jesus simply makes you love the beautiful story more and marvel at its Author. Like a masterful detective, Alistair Chalmers has done a brilliant job of pulling together the threads that reveal Christ in the Old and New Testaments.

I am excited by the potential this book has to do this. Phil Knox, Evangelical Alliance and author of Story Bearer and The Best of Friends Enlightening, exciting and easy to read, Roadmap to Jesus places us with the disciples on the Emmaus Road journeying through the bigger story of the Bible and how it all points to our glorious saviour.

This book helped me make connections I had never before seen, gi
