This is a nonfiction novel about the life of Jesus from His baptism to His ascension.What makes this book different is that it not only cover all four gospels it includes fictional scenes and scenes from a Christian mystic who claims she had been visited by Jesus. Three Years With Jesus reads like a novel with description which make the life of Jesus Christ come alive. For example, here is the scene of Christ's crucifixion:

The two criminals swore with oaths against God, the Law, and Romans as they were tied to their crosses. But Jesus lay His body on the cross meekly. Having stretched out His painful arms and legs, He groaned in agony as two executioners sat on His chest to hold Him. A third man grabbed His right arm and pressed the back of His hand against the cross. A fourth man, holding a long nail looked to see if the hole already made in the wood matched the radius-ulnar joint of the wrist. He raised his hammer and made the first stroke.

Jesus uttered a sharp cry as the nail tore through the muscles, nerves, and veins. His eyes were flooded with tears. But then He heard a shriek from His mother, bending as if she were crushed, then dropping her head in her hands. Jesus, observing her deep sorrow, recalled what Simeon said to her on the day He was consecrated to the Lord, "A sword shall pierce through Your own soul; that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed."

With His right hand now nailed, the executioners found that the pre-drilled hole in the cross did not mesh with the corpus of His left hand. So, they pulled the arm, dislocating the joint so they could nail that hand to the cross. As they nailed His left hand, He tried not to wail in pain with each bone-crushing and sinew-tearing stroke of the hammer.
