First of all, what you will find on this website is the complete text of my novel, "SON OF MAN," formerly published as "The Justus Scrolls." Here is a short review:
"SON OF MAN" by Paul David Morris offers a unique and engaging perspective on the life of Jesus Christ, as seen through the eyes of Joseph bar Sabbas, also known as Justus. Justus was one of the two candidates considered to replace Judas Iscariot, but the lot fell to Matthias instead.
The novel stands out for its rich historical detail and vivid storytelling. Morris does an excellent job of bringing the biblical era to life, providing readers with a sense of what it might have been like to walk alongside Jesus and his disciples. The narrative explores Justus's personal journey, his interactions with Jesus, and his reflections on the events that shaped early Christianity.
One of the book's strengths is its ability to humanize its characters, making them relatable and multi-dimensional. Justus's feelings of rejection and his determination to document his experiences add depth to the story. The author also delves into lesser-known aspects of Jesus's life, offering fresh insights and perspectives.
Overall, "SON OF MAN" is a compelling read for anyone interested in sacred history and biblical studies, or simply a well-told story. It manages to be both informative and entertaining, without becoming preachy or laced with phony piety.
The book is posted here on this website in its entirety for your consumption and pleasure and without any charge whatsoever. The printed book, of course, is available for purchase in paperback and kindle, under its old title, "The Justus Scrolls," but you can read the new and improved text right here without any payment at all -- until it comes out in print form. Even then, it will still be free to read right here.
. . . is to provide a resource where faith may be enlarged and deepened, or in the case of no faith, a resource where one may see God revealed in the love, grace and sweet invitation of Jesus Christ.
If you have an interest in biblical theology, the rest of this website is dedicated to that end. Feel free to walk or run through its webpages to your heart's content. I like a few smiles sprinkled between the lines. That's what you may find in "Letters to Lizzie Mae," "Daisy Inspirations," and "Stories and Stuff."
