The Thief Who Stole Heaven: A Tale of Dysmas (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645028584)

When Jesus of Nazareth was crucified, there were two others crucified with Him. Tradition tells us their names. Dysmas and Gestus. Dysmas is known to the world as "the good thief." But who was he? And how did he come to be hanging upon a cross beside Jesus? The scriptural account explains how Jesus came to be there, and even why. But what of Dysmas? Mix what we know from Scripture, and so much learned since then, with a fertile imagination, and you have, "A Tale of Dysmas." The thief who literally stole heaven for himself, with his dying breath. Join us as we explore the unlikely yet plausible tale, of the life and adventures of the greatest thief in history.
