When God Was a Boy

De: C.T. Giles

Narrado por: C.T. Giles

Yosef struggles through his responsibilities as the surrogate father of the messiah, destined as he is to raise and train the single most influential person in human history. Dwelling with his wife and children in the quiet township of Natzeret, always beneath the shadow of the Roman Empire, at times beneath its hostility, Yosef does the very best that he can to guide his adopted prodigy of a son. No one else had ever been expected to function as the guardian of God during His incarnate adolescence. And Yosef never knew as much either.

Jesus through his stepfather’s eyes

What an incredible perspective, to imagine what the life of a young Jesus might have been like, viewed through the eyes of His stepfather, Joseph. This book has expanded my faith, and caused me to think deeper about the entire life of Jesus. So well written. Whether you are a Bible Scholar, have never read the book before in your life… or somewhere in between… this will cause you to think about things larger than yourself. And look at Jesus in a fresh, new way.

Amazing

Absolutely amazing! Could not be more proud of this great work and the person who wrote it.

Well written and even better recited to my ears

Well written and a Great family story! I look forward to more from the author.

Excellent! Very thought provoking!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading (listening) to this book. I have thought a lot about what Jesus' upbringing would've/could've looked like and this book brought some of those thoughts and ideas to life. The historical research that went into this made the story feel alive and congruent with Biblical history. I can't wait to get the paper copy of this book and read it to my kids.

Also, there is definitely room for a book series to be written here. I really hope the author is considering writing sequels!

Amazing picture of our Father as a boy!

I loved how the author was able to take Jesus’ early life and mix Scripture with some carefully formed creative liberties to give a picture of what our Father was like as a boy. A great listen! I will be recommending this book to others!
