About this listen

Why are those closest to you the last to believe?

In this fictional account, James both looks up to and is perplexed and annoyed by his older brother, Jesus. Throughout his childhood, James witnesses amazing things but wonders why Jesus can’t just follow the rules like the rest of them. Why does Mama indulge him, especially after he begins leading that group of religious malcontents? After Jesus is arrested and crucified, James stands at the foot of the cross in disbelief. In a moment of panic and regret, he flees and is thrown into a whirlwind of fear and confusion. As darkness descends on the city and lightning illuminates the heavens, James maneuvers through the chaos of Jerusalem and the Passover celebration.

A mosaic of faces from the past reminds James of God’s love and grace—and the role Jesus played in getting them there. As James flees from doubt and uncertainty, could he be running into Jesus’s waiting arms?

Must listen

If you ever wanted to understand how James, the younger brother of Jesus, felt after the crucifixion, you MUST listen to this book. B.F. Randall has a fantastic way of breaking this information down, so the "cookies are on the lower shelf". You can feel how James felt, and understand the dynamic of Jesus' and James' relationship in a way that is relatable. Sometimes, when you read the bible, it is easy to get lost in the words and not truly understand the meaning behind them. B.F. Randall eloquently writes these stories with the bible as the starting, middle, and endpoints. I highly recommend this book to everyone, no matter their beliefs or background.

Uniquely done

I truly enjoyed the manner in which the story line flows from
old story to new story, meetings. The book kept my interest and I was anxiously waiting for the next episode/character to be introduced.

Creatively Captivating

BF Randall has mastered the craft of creatively bringing the reader into a piece of history by exploring the life of characters that might otherwise be lost in translation and by beautifully revealing the humanity side of Jesus in this story. Well done!
