Description:The Thirteenth Man, Observations of the Man Jesus and the Kingdom of God marks the debut of an extraordinary new voice in biblical historical fiction. John R. Conlon invites us to follow the life of Jesus through the eyes of Jason, David, and Alex, three men who are hungry for one thing-spiritual truth. Jason, a Greek, is disillusioned by the philosophies and many gods found in his society, and he is lured to Palestine in hopes of finding the "one true God." David, a poor rabbi who ministers to children, has a chance meeting with Jason, and the two soon become friends. Alex, a man experienced in worldly travels but with no home, joins the men on their journey, and eventually the three become members of the troop that follows after The Gentile Galilean. Through a unique combination of Scripture, dialogue, and viewpoints, we identify with Jason, David, and Alex as they grapple with questions like: . Who is the man Jesus-a prophet or the incarnate God? . Does the Good News that Jesus proclaimed produce liberty or bondage? . Is the gospel a matter of individual repentance or universal acceptance? . How can a seeker discover eternal truth? . What does a community look like that models the kingdom of God? . How should the life of Jesus aff ect his followers? With poignancy and unparalleled historical accuracy, Conlon's characters come alive in ways that challenge us to examine our own walk with Christ. Do we accept Him as Savior? Do we acknowledge Him as Lord? Your own answers may surprise you. John R. Conlon, author of The End of Biblical Christianity and the Last Church, is a retired pastor. Over the past seventy years, he held positions of senior pastor, college professor, missionary, author, counselor, investigator, and administrator. Conlon holds a B.A. and M.A. in Religion.
