Stevenson III captures all the teachings of Jesus that demonstrated the Father. This book also highlights how aggressively Satan distorts the father role to fracture people’s lives in the areas of: • Identity • Security • Failures • Confidence Abba addresses the key to a more fulfilling worship life as well as understanding God’s heart toward the fatherless. A revelation of the father heart of God is needed more now than ever.

In Abba's Way, Jesus returns to set the world's religions straight. Abba is the shockingly-familiar Aramaic name for God that Jesus uses in the Lord's Prayer. Jesus argues that this very Abba is within each of us, ready to change our lives for the better. If we only have eyes to see. In 70 brief poetic essays, Jesus explains how we can move the world from its present violent precipice to a global society built around negotiation, individual achievement and openness to the presence of Abba in each person. On the occasion of the publication of Stephen C. Rose's 'The Grass Roots Church", The New York Times called the author a new Martin Luther whose theses might change today's world.
