  I Happened Upon A Miracle

  $23.00

  In I Happened upon a Miracle, David McKirachan offers eighteen first-person narratives told in the voices of characters from the life of Jesus, ranging from the Christmas story through the crucifixion and resurrection. The characters include the innkeeper in Bethlehem, the little boy whose fishes and loaves fed a crowd, the woman who anointed Jesus’ feet in the house of the Pharisee, a Roman soldier on hand as Jesus drove the moneylenders from the temple in Jerusalem, and the keeper of the garden tomb. In each story we are invited into the Gospel text. We inhabit the stories, and through the voice of each teller we are drawn closer to the wonder experienced by the first witnesses of Jesus.
  This imaginative retelling of stories from the perspective of some of the supporting actors and bit players of the Gospels will prove to be an engaging resource for those seeking a fresh perspective on the life and ministry of Jesus.
