"What manner of men ought ye to be? Verily I say unto you, even as I am." Nowhere in recorded scripture is the Lord's expectation of us more clearly stated. In a perceptive and moving exploration of the Savior's personality, Elder Neal A. Maxwell examines the qualities of the Savior that leads us to perfection. We must not be fainthearted, he says, for just as the invitation to follow comes from the Savior, so does His offer of help. "We will know the Shepherd, not alone in reassuring and comforting mental imagery of holy scripture, but also in the relentless application of His attributes to our lives," Elder Maxwell writes. Even As I Am is a provocative portrait of Jesus Christ written for all who desire to become like Him.
