Familiar Stranger by Michael McClymond is a very readable introduction to that elusive figure known as "the historical Jesus" -- his life, his world, his sayings and doings, accounts of his death and resurrection, and his followers' efforts to understand him.

Three features set Familiar Stranger apart from the many other available books on Jesus. First, it's targeted to general readers but doesn't dumb down in its attempt to inform them. Second, it's ideologically balanced, exhibiting a refreshing lack of agenda or ulterior motive beyond the desire to genuinely present what we can and cannot know about Jesus today. Third, it brings together the two most fruitful models for understanding Jesus and his mission -- Jesus the "moral sage" and Jesus the "eschatological prophet." The result is a truly well-rounded picture of Jesus.

Marked by concision, clarity, and thoroughness, McClymond's Familiar Stranger is ideal for classrooms, study groups, and individuals in search of an up-to-date, trustworthy guide to the historical Jesus. Readers familiar with Jesus may well find him becoming stranger to them through these pages, and, conversely, those to whom Jesus is a stranger may well discover a growing familiarity with him.

Baby Body lotion
I bought this cream for my 2 babies and I absolutely love it. It keeps their skin very soft, moisturized, and irritation-free. One of my babies has very sensitive skin, and this cream helped a lot with dryness. I also love that it’s fragrance-free and absorbs well without feeling greasy. We use it every day after bath time, and we’ve noticed a big difference in their skin. 10/10

A gentle favorite we’ve trusted since baby days
I’ve been buying this since my daughter was a baby, and it’s still a staple in our house today. It’s incredibly gentle on sensitive skin, never caused irritation or dryness, and I love that we can trust it for daily use even now that she’s older. The formula is mild yet effective, with a clean feel and no overpowering scent. It’s one of those products you stick with because it just works and never disappoints. For the price and reliability, I can’t imagine our home without it. Pro Tip: Keep one bottle in the bathroom and an extra in the travel bag, great for on the go when your child’s skin needs that extra gentle care.

Gentle and Effective Daily Lotion for Baby
We’ve been using Eucerin Baby Body Lotion on our son every day, and it’s been very good. It keeps his skin soft, hydrated, and protected, even in the hot and humid southern weather. It absorbs quickly and isn't greasy. One of the best parts is how gentle it is, we apply it to his whole body, including his face, and even if it gets near his eyes or mouth, he doesn’t fuss or cry. It’s also pediatrician-recommended and fragrance-free, which is always a giant plus. We’ve had zero issues with irritation or dryness since switching to this, and we’ll definitely keep it as part of our daily routine. Highly recommended for any parent looking for a safe, effective, and affordable baby lotion.

Really good baby lotion
Recently purchased this, I was skeptical given that I’ve never used river in brand on any of my babies skin, I tried so many different baby lotions (unscented & for sensitive skin) and this one so far has been working great! It isn’t too greasy and my baby’s skin is definitely improving

Works great for dry skin!
I stumbled across this product when looking for a new lotion for my 2 month olds super dry skin. I tried several lotions until finally this one worked. It is fragrance free which is a huge plus. It was vent gentle on my babies skin and helped with her dry skin fairly quick. This is a staple in our nighttime routine now! Only thing I do not love about it, is that it is a little thin/liquidly which I personally don't like. Overall, great product and would re buy!
