About this listen

Jesus: Then, Now, Ever. This audiobook fails. How could it not? The author is human; the subject beyond human kind. Still, the challenge compels. Tell the tales, teller, the many tales that still for all can teach. Jesus as a child; his mother guiding his early inquisitive steps then, as a dutiful son, miracles reluctantly began.

Jesus, years, miles, and lives removed, hitchhiking rides from farmers, visiting querulous college students unclear yet whom to trust, commiserating with a mother-who-wasn't-but-still-believes-she-is, Jesus being challenged and mocked on worldwide TV by Satan himself. Satan telling how he trained a deer to fire a rifle that when he came upon the Christian Hunters in the woods one day-he knew how to shoot them before they got him. Jesus thrown out of a church for not dressing right, bringing together a wounded GI and the enemy soldier who had just tried to kill him, attending a world-changing church conference without recognition, working and proselytizing in an American car wash, joining rescuers in the throes of great natural disaster near where he had preached and saved souls centuries before. Jesus visiting John on the isle of Patmos to discuss the heresies of TV in centuries to be, rehabbing an artist who through all his agonies never ceased believing in God, noting one sentence that spoken by man or woman is never true, teaching us all how not to pray, offering a college religion class the right to ask him any one question and he would honestly answer. And they did and he did and we learn it all. So many lessons to teach and lives to mold. The mission of God's son never seeming to end. Certainly not to be captured in a human-wrought book.

AN INTERESTING TAKE

I have long been a fan of Jack Perkins. His insight and reporting have always resonated with me. Hearing of is recent passing in the fall of 2019 I was drawn to THIS book ... one of his last (it may even be his last) ... to hear his interesting take on Jesus being then, now, ever more. It is entertaining as a exercise in seeing Jesus everywhere in our lives. Sometimes humorous, sometimes way out there, sometimes very emotional --- this listen is worth the time to get another perspective on God, his son and what came before and what comes after the beginning and the now. I recommend it. The narration is not an impersonation of Perkins but in his same friendly style and cadence and made me feel as if I was, perhaps, listening to Jack himself tell me his story.
