A gritty, emotionally gripping story about forgiveness, family, and the sometimes tragically painful sins of the church.
Jack Bennett has a wife, two kids, the perfect job--and the perfect affair. When he is caught and it all comes crashing down, Jack is left with no one to turn to. No friends. No family, except his recovering drug addict of a sister.
On a Sunday morning drive, he sees a homeless man locked out of a church service, banging on the door. He stops and offers the guy a cup of coffee. He asks the man his name, and the guy says Yeshua. As in, Jesus.
Jack's not stupid. This isn't the real Jesus. But with nowhere else to turn, Jack forms an unlikely friendship with this eccentric homeless man--one that will test his idea of truth, faith, love, and forgiveness.
And Jack is completely unprepared for the real-life twists his story is going to take.

Review
Reader Reviews (taken from Amazon reviews):
"Can't remember the last time I was so blessed by a book. It made me think, laugh, cry, repent, forgive others and myself." -Renee Reed
"Unusual, original, compelling...it is gritty, soulful, unsentimental, heartrending, and entirely worth your time." -Diane E. Amov
"Couldn't put the book down, and didn't even begin to guess the twist at the end. An absolutely beautiful story on many levels." -Lorna Johnston
"I can't imagine anyone not remembering this book long after they've come to the last page." -Shelley Waldaias
