Publisher's Summary

Behind the Halo offers listeners an engaging, new perspective on the humanity of Jesus and his emotional reactions to people and events around him. This fictional account of his ministry, based on the gospels of the Bible, follows Jesus, the man and teacher, with his band of disciples as they navigate issues of ancient Israel. Poverty, political intrigue, suppression, and undiagnosed and misunderstood health conditions ran rampant, much like they do in our 21st century.

Overlay the cultural setting with a band of believers as diverse in their livelihoods and socio-economic statuses as they were in temperaments. Pull back the curtain for a peek at what interactions between them, their teacher, and others may have looked and sounded like. There is more to this guy, Jesus, than we have dared to imagine. He displayed all the messy emotions we do. And those emotions make him more relatable than we ever dared to hope. When we dig deeper into Scripture, we discover Jesus was far more than a two-dimensional Bible character. He interacted with all kinds of people with humor, compassion, and yes, sometimes even frustration and aggravation.

Whether you are a new believer, a non-believer, or have been a Christ-follower for decades, Behind the Halo promises stories of a man, whose life and teachings, continue to challenge the powerful and educated, while offering solace and strength to the meek. Allowing ourselves to consider Jesus from an emotional viewpoint, especially his interactions and relationships with others, provides an opportunity to connect with him in a new and more personable way. Short descriptive and engaging stories with action and dialogue will keep you listening, laughing, and relating to Jesus. Discover a side of Jesus you may not have thought about.
