The author blends Biblical scholarship with his warm imagination to transform the Gospel of Mark into Jesus' story. Christian creeds proclaim "Jesus Christ: Fully Human, Fully Divine," but his humanity tends to be overlooked in actual practice. The readers of this novel will experience The Man of Galilee in all his rich humanity. They will see the tender parting with his family when he leaves for the Jordan River. They will hear his thoughts as he struggles with Satan in the wilderness. They will meet his followers, Simon Peter, James, John, Mary Magdala. Thomas and Judas - yes - even Judas as understandable, likeable people. The readers see his growth in the understanding of the peril and enormity of his messianic ministry. They will share his struggles and be with him on the cross. In short, the readers of this novel will never again think of Jesus as less than fully human.
