Vintage 1st edition 'The Word Became Flesh' by E. Stanley Jones 1964

The Word Became Flesh is a renowned devotional book written by E. Stanley Jones, first published by Abingdon Press. The book is a collection of 364 daily devotionals focused on the theme of the incarnation (John 1:14), exploring how God became human in Jesus Christ to transform human life. Christianity vs. Other Faiths: Drawing on his extensive missionary experience, Jones argues that Christianity is unique because it represents God reaching down to humanity, whereas other faiths often focus on humanity reaching up to God. The book is designed for daily reading, providing a scripture passage, commentary, prayer, and affirmation for each day. It is often used for daily devotionals and includes a 52-week discussion guide for group study. E. Stanley Jones (1884–1973) was a widely recognized American missionary and evangelist who spent decades working in India and Japan. The Word Became Flesh remains a popular Christian resource, often described as an "updated classic". It has been re-released by the E. Stanley Jones Foundation and is considered one of his most theological and impactful works. Original 1st edition, very good condition (dustjacket areas of shelf wear/minor tear)
