Born in Minneapolis, he worked as a seasonal US Park Service ranger for five years before starting to teach. The current work is the result of many years labor, first in collating the four gospel accounts into a single narrative, then in imagining the reaction of a Roman officer to his brief encounter with Jeshua. In the years following that encounter, he must have ruminated deeply on its meaning.
Married, with no offspring, the author hopes that the reader will also be inspired to ruminate on the tale told here, as he did, and come to understand that the mysterious Jewish preacher whose life was indeed brief, carried a message of profound meaning for all.vizualizați mai puține
