If you had the chance to talk with Jesus one on one, what questions would you ask him? If I had the chance, I would ask Him about Lazarus. Jesus cried when he heard that Lazarus had died, so the two of them were obviously close friends. How did Jesus and Lazarus become such close friends in the first place?

What if Lazarus's wife--who I call Shanequa--raised Holy Hell and objected to Lazarus becoming a disciple? How may things have went down?

Autorenporträt
Patrick is originally from Guyana, South America, a place of grinding poverty, yet incredible racial and religious diversity. He's a Christian and belongs to a church in the United Church of Christ denomination in the Chicagoland area. He graduated from Chicago-Kent Law School in 1997, and from The City College of New York in Harlem, in 1991. His undergrad major was Urban Legal Studies, and his minor was Black Studies. He served seven years in the US Coast Guard. He's been involved with social justice issues by volunteering for various organizations and writing articles about sexism, racism and anti-semitism. Over the last several years, while working with Jewish organizations, he came to understand the striking similarities of the struggles of Blacks and Jews, and of how much Judaism has been unfortunately removed from mainstream Christian thought. This book is Pat's attempt to write a Gospel story that is true to the words of the Gospel, but that also paints a realistic picture of how Jesus impacted, and was himself impacted by those he touched.
