5.0
Fascinating, modern interpretation and analysis of Jesus' last days and resurrection and ascension. Written as if the writer is speaking to you, with contemporary references it does a careful job discussing events while balancing differences across Christian faiths. (Nothing when Catholic or Greek Orthodox traditions may differ from Protestant ones).
Many, many sidebars dive into the biographies of various Biblical and historic characters - including the women, the story flows quickly. A great read, especially during Lent, this book offers some interesting thoughts on the value of the ascension, not just the resurrection on the story of Jesus.
Modern language and discussion is readable for those looking for a current take on things... but maybe not for KJV purests.
