The Jesus Nut

De: John Prather

Narrado por: Harley Jay

The Jesus Nut tells the parallel stories of three unlikely pilgrims - a reviled professor, a delusional homeless veteran, and a priest who loves strip clubs - searching for the greatest religious relic of the 21st century. Thrown together after a raucous showdown with evangelists, they decide to ignore their differences and work as a team in pursuit of their holy purpose. Their journey to New York City leads to a fateful encounter with a former advertising executive, whose mad ramblings suggest he might be the very oracle to help them fulfill their destiny.

A quirky, subversive novel that addresses timely issues and lampoons evangelical hypocrisy, The Jesus Nut ultimately reveals itself to be a story of second chances and agape love. Along the way, you'll meet self-righteous academics, a curious and ambitious stripper, a farmer with a remarkable peanut, a trucker fascinated by the constellations, a profane church maintenance crew, and more. Prepare for an irreverent quest which will remind you of the value of friends and the miraculous power of faith.

Love it!

Laugh out loud funny, outrageous, and heartwarming! Great characters. Not for easily offended religious readers.

A Must read!

This book grabbed me from the first page. Very well written! Hilarious characters woven into a meaningful message. Extremely enjoyable!!

Excellent

Great writing in which seemingly unrelated stories come together in one great climatic conclusion. More than that, the main characters are likable and interesting, and I wouldn’t mind reading another book about them, if that’s possible. Also, the narration is fantastic. A great performance.

Funny & Pointed commentary with engaging characters

We all have our flaws & we don’t always know our purpose. This book has great characters that aren’t perfect but they are figuring it out. Funny, easy read I would recommend to anyone.

Loved it!

A unique, engaging and humorous story. I had not expected it to also be heartwarming with an inspirational final message. I highly recommend!

Funny, cheeky, captivating

This is three small stories that tell a much larger story. It’s about three wanderers seeking something larger than themselves and discovering something unique. There’s a lot of buildup, but the insight into the daily lives of these characters is at once funny, revealing, and sad. It very much reflects the human existence for all of us. Does not disappoint!

The narrators are quite skilled to boot. There’s much to love in this book.
