Flood Gates

BOOK 5 -  FLOOD GATES -  With half the kingdom running after the carpenter, it is only a matter of time before the Temple hierarchy is destroyed and he takes over.  Can they find a way to secretly kill him?

Jesus survived death threats, calmed misdirected power, and talked with the spirit world.  He released people of handicaps, gave an adulteress hope, rested with friends, then raised the dead. And the hypocrite religious leaders finalized plans to kill him.

This is not just a novel. It is much more.  This is a lyrical novel with the reader allowed to give opinions right in the story. 

Come along with me and take a journey with the real Jesus.  You are one of them.  Probably you are several of them. Go ahead and struggle with him as they did. Laugh. Cry. Do mental battle with him. Emotional battle, too. Fight for your faith as they fought. Pause to listen for what you've never heard before. Then touch the soul of Jesus.  These are the stories of faith in the impossible. Hope in the inconceivable. Love for the invincible. It is the dreams of youth, the desperations of infirmity, the hopes of age, and the song of eternity. Follow the suspense as each person in Jesus' life comes to terms with who they are, and who Jesus is. Jesus accepts them as they are. But can they accept themselves as they are? More than that, can they accept Jesus as he is? Both God and man? Both Creator and created? Both King and servant? It is the story of doubts explained away, animosities melted away, misunderstandings cleared away. It is your story and mine. For deep within each of us is everyone who ever went on a journey and struggled with Jesus.

And at the end of each chapter are discussion questions, ancient historical records cited, and scriptures used as a basis for the story.  Also, suggested readings are given for special occasions.  And it  has a three-page bibliography of all books consulted while writing all eight volumes of "Soul Journey With the Real Jesus".
