Having portrayed the hidden adolescent years of Jesus in Yeshua, Bible student Herb Dimock now gives us a convincing glimpse into the psychology of Jesus during those unhidden years -- the ministry of Jesus traditionally rendered by the New Testament gospels. Much more convincing than Christopher Moore's Lamb.
From John the Baptist through Jesus' death and resurrection, we are privy to a plausible intimate dialogue between the man sent to show the world the way of salvation and peace, and the one who sent him.
Yeshua and The Intimate God draws us into the growing relationship between Jesus the junior partner, and his "Abba", the senior partner, God. Indeed, as their work unfolds, we are challenged to see ourselves in a similar fashion.
EXERPT:
"Abba, the mother and her child that we just passed, there is something terribly wrong with the boy's eyes."
"He's totally blind."
"Will John's baptism make a difference?"
"Probably not. The damage is a family affair."
"Then there would need to be healing for the mother's broken heart, also?"
"And for the father who refused to come."
