LAGUNA HILLS, Calif., Jan. 16, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- No other story could be greater or more influential than the story of the King of Kings, Christ Jesus. As countless people around the world learned about his life and teachings through the Holy Bible, readers are about to get a new and inspirational look at Christ with the release of The Healer By Gennesaret, a book authored by Niki Adams. A novel based on the New Testament Gospels in the Bible, The Healer By Gennesaret tells the story of the life of Jesus as seen through the eyes of Andrew Bar-jona, his first-called disciple, the one who therefore knew him the longest.
Readers will witness Jesus' travels to Jerusalem and into other cities and villages in Judea, Galilee, Syria, Syrophonecia and the land east of the Jordan River, while healing as he taught God's love for the children of men. From the time Andrew hears that the kingdom of heaven is at hand until the Apostles go forth from the Holy Land into the world to teach after Jesus' ascension into heaven, this story will not only warm your heart but it will also move your imagination and deepen your faith in Christ.
