Cain presents a Jesus whose humanity includes doubt and vulnerability, offering a deeply scriptural and moving portrait of one who is both fully human and fully divine. The result is an infinitely lovable Christ who is 'not done loving us yet.-- U.S. Catholic

An award-winning screenwriter and playwright provides a startling and beautiful work of religious imagination. Bill Cain's The Diary of Jesus Christ is a first-person recounting of the life of Jesus, a new lens through which to see the familiar stories of the gospel--including the Passion.

The story begins with the healing of the leper, heralding the remarkable spirit that flows through the diary accounts--a spirit of discovery, surprise, learning, doubt, failure, and growth.

While obviously not really the diary of Jesus Christ, here is a first-person account of the life of Jesus by noted Jesuit playwright Bill Cain. The diary places us inside Jesus's consciousness, where the spirit of discovery, surprise, learning, doubt, failure and growth is in sharp contrast to the canonical gospels where Jesus seems, from the start, self-assured and even predestined to fulfill his role. It is a bold attempt to understand the person whom more than two billion people claim as their savior.
