Jesus Christ changed the world...but did he ever lose his sandals? He healed others...but was he ever sick? If he was God, why didn't he know everything? Did he have friends? Did he ever tell a joke? Did he laugh? What about his sexuality? Why did his family think he was crazy?Does his story matter now?While many may already know the bare facts of Jesus' life, this unique, daring, and inspiring novel reveals the astonishing possibilities of what else could have been. Meticulously researched, 'Becoming the Son' invites you to encounter the Jesus of the Gospels in ways you might not expect. What you will experience is likely to change your life, forever.

To the best of my own research, Baker’s story is consistent with scripture. It is historical fiction, of course, meaning Baker adds his imagination and elaboration, yet there was very little I would argue against. Should I be surprised his book is so precise? No … Baker has a Master’s degree in Theology, and has published six novels before this one. His writing is captivating and authentic, so much so that I found myself hoping Becoming the Son would end before the crucifixion of Jesus, so that Baker would have to write a sequel!
This book is not a light-hearted beach read. It’ll pull your guts out in places, it’ll make you think differently about Jesus as a human being, and regardless of your belief in God, it’ll uplift you with what an astounding story the Bible tells about an incredible life lived and died for others.
Read this one.
