Imagine the story of Jesus told like never before–through the eyes of his enemies. In Why I Would Have Killed Jesus and You Might Have Too, we meet five characters, who state their case against the Galilean prophet and messiah. Deborah is a young widow eager to break the shackles of Roman oppression. Shem is a fisherman determined to keep a crowd. Sarah is a protective grandmother from Nazareth. Maximus is a Roman soldier devoted to law and order. Aaron is a Pharisee seeking righteousness. By a series of dramatic monologues, incorporating biblical and historical research, the world of Jesus comes alive in rich and provocative tones. Journey from the hills of Nazareth, near the tomb of Lazarus, across the shores of the Sea of Galilee, and into Jerusalem. Prepare to be confronted by Jesus and let your heart be transformed along the way.
