JEEZ AND THE GENTILE
What do you do when life overwhelms? Tom learns to lean on God and trust his own instincts.
Tom is a bitter twelve-year old whose father is killed in a police drug raid gone bad. During speeches at his father’s funeral, he fails asleep and wakes up in the first century on the road to Sepphoris where he meets a young Jesus who introduces himself as Jeez. Together they witness four soldiers escaping the city on horseback. When they reach the city, they learn that Jeez’s father, Joseph, has been murdered and a young, Mary Magdalene, has been kidnapped.
As witnesses, Tom and Jeez are both drafted by local authorities to pursue the four horsemen and bring them to justice. The pursuit takes them to different villages and towns in Israel (Sepphoris, Nazareth, Megiddo, Jezreel, Sebastian, Shechem, Bethel, Jericho, and Jerusalem). In the process, they brave lions, hyenas, and scorpions, and cope with grief, human trafficking, murder, spiritual warfare, first-century politics, and travel in the ancient world.
In spite of his fish-out-of-water status, Tom learns to lean on God and rely on himself. Jeez learns the boundaries of being fully human within the context of relationship. Tom returns to our time a changed person with an appreciation for forgiveness and a growing faith.
