If Jesus were born into today's world, what would his life be like? This imaginative retelling of the Gospel story offers a glimpse into how his coming might look and how he might be received in modern times.

Josué Diéscono Davison, the chosen one born of the holy Spirit in a 21st Century, Western country, is the embodiment of the Heart of God on earth. Though affirmed and empowered by the heavenly Father, he faces intense - and often supernatural - opposition as he seeks to accomplish his mission of service, salvation, and love.

The Son of No Man XXI depicts Josué's unique life: his divinely-ordained birth in the back of a pickup, his miracle-filled ministry, his profound teaching and remarkable claims about his identity, his continual, bitter conflict with religionists, and even his gruesome treatment by a malicious triarchy.

The fictional story asks thought-provoking questions throughout its pages, including:

Seasoned religious author Kevin Anthony Keating bases The Son of No Man XXI on the events and dialogues described in the four biblical gospels. He deftly crafts a reverent and faithful portrayal that is neither a substitute for the good news message of the Scriptures nor a disavowal of Jesus' Jewish identity. Instead, Keating exercises creative license while preserving the original ideas of the evangelists, all with the intent of encouraging a more earnest application of Jesus' words and actions to our everyday lives here and now.
