What we behold, we become.
That's the heartbeat of Looking to Jesus: Beholding Him to Become Like Him. In a distracted and disoriented world, Pastor Will Bassett invites readers to fix their eyes on the Servant-King-the One Isaiah saw, the One Who still transforms lives today. Through the often-overlooked Servant Songs of Isaiah, this book draws us into a fresh, Spirit-filled encounter with Jesus: the Holy One, the obedient Servant, the Suffering Savior, and the victorious Lord.
With honest storytelling, biblical depth, practical application, and a pastor's heart, Bassett weaves theology and testimony into a call to worship, holiness, and life-changing Christian living. Whether you're spiritually dry, longing for more, or simply hungry to know Christ more deeply, Looking to Jesus offers a clear path forward-one gaze at a time.
""In Looking to Jesus, Will Bassett does what few authors do: he points us to Jesus...
No one can point the way unless he is on the journey himself. Will is a good guide.""

""Will brings profound insights from the four Servant Songs of Isaiah, guiding us to see Jesus more clearly and be transformed into His image. The ancient prophet Isaiah saw things about the coming Messiah that were unique among his contemporaries, and Will embodies the desire to 'behold the king in his beauty' (Isa. 33:17) and pass that message on to others....""

""Looking to Jesus is more than a book-it's a sacred invitation. Will Bassett masterfully weaves ancient prophecy with present-day purpose, guiding readers through the Servant Songs of Isaiah with both theological depth and pastoral tenderness. Every chapter lifts the gaze of the reader toward Christ-not just as a figure to admire but as a Savior to emulate...

""Any book helping us to understand more about Jesus is always going to be essential reading as we try to live for Him and like Him. Will's approach of leading to a thirty-day devotional, along with the different strands he uses to explore, creates an easy-to-read experience but with some real depth and challenge. I really enjoyed reading Looking to Jesus, and I know you will, too. It really will inspire you.""
