Reviews

Strange little story


(3 stars)

In my experience, stories about "Christ today" are from the point of view of an eventual follower of Jesus. This one isn't. The ending was anticlimactic, in that life just continued on for the protagonist. However, I did enjoy this story as it gave the "other side of the story" from one who didn't follow Jesus. It got a little preachy at times (especially in the interludes), but overall it was worth the listen. Reader is good, and technical quality was A-OK.

A book every christian should read!


(5 stars)

I think every Christian should read this. Its from the Pharisee point of view in realising the truth after and helps press the point that all are equal sinners that need changed by Gods grace. Its well written and would be enjoyed by anyone secular or christian who wants to consider the life of Jesus in a deeper way
