The Gospel According to Thunder Johnson: A Re-telling of the Gospel of John by John in Cowboy Language (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798903444014)

The Gospel According to Thunder Johnson is the ancient story of Jesus retold in the language of a cowboy storyteller named Thunder Johnson (a play on the name of the Apostle John who was called a "Son of Thunder"). Thunder refers to himself as "the tag-along that was always close to Jesus" and dresses the story of Jesus up in the old west.

This paraphrase of John's gospel draws the reader into the story of Jesus in a sub-cultural language that is easily understood and appeals to a wide audience.

You don't have to be at church wearing Sunday-go-to-meetin' clothes to learn more about Jesus, and you don't have to be a cowboy to enjoy the simple lifestyle, character, and language of the cowboy culture. But if you've ever wanted to, and many of us have, you will enjoy reading the Gospel According to Thunder Johnson.
