Welcome!
I wrote this Story to give people an unusual glimpse of the person
Jesus. Much has been written about him, but, it seems to me, most views of
Jesus, including the “historical Jesus” are through a prism of Creedal concepts
(divinity/atonement) which obscure the person behind them. I have tried
to give a picture of the life of Jesus without that theological emphasis. Of
course his life and ministry are full of religious meaning, but I have made the
story “neutral” enough to make the person, Jesus, central. Once having
encountered the life of this person, I expect each reader will add such
interpretation, Creed, and theology as his/her faith calls for. I believe it
will be richer for having encountered the “one like a person” or the “Son of
Man” as he chose to call himself.
