The Story of Jesus Christ Presented in an “Upbeat” Clever Interpretation for Young Adult Christians


When asked what inspired the author to write this book, Brother Moses said, “On a trip to the Rick Ball Players Showcase in Miami, Florida where a large number of college coaches come to watch high school prospects compete for scholarships, I had to listen to the music of several of the players on the way. At one point they began a rather heated debate on who had the best lyrics and why. To my dismay few of them knew about our Lord and savior Jesus Christ and to be honest, Christ’s name never came up. When I was their age, I remembered listening to Lord Byron’s ‘The Naz.’ I thought I should do the story of Jesus in the language of today’s youth as a way of introducing them to Christ.”
