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. 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.
