Two thousand years ago, one man stepped into history and turned I everything we knew - or thought we knew - about God on its head. People flocked around him for many reasons, some loved him, the majority hated him, but all felt his effect on their lives, and still do. Wars have been fought in his name. People have been blessed in his name and others have cursed it! Who was this man? He was born in a small, obscure country and into a poor family, yet today he is known throughout the world. Take a walk with him through these pages and let him lead you through that small country and its unique beliefs, rituals, and temperament Experience his joys and disappointments, his love and disgust, and come to understand the deeper meaning behind his teachings and parables. This first novel by Michael Beauchamp takes you on an epic journey with Jesus from Nazareth. Beginning with the promise of the birth of John the Baptist and ending with the last breath of Jesus himself, the one who stepped into history and even changed the way we measure it! Michael Beauchamp was born in Cape Town, South Africa. He spent 40 years in the Mechanical Engineering field before retiring to the coastal town of Plettenberg Bay in November 2016. This is where the seeds that were planted in his 40 years as a believer eventually blossomed into words in BEHOLD THE MAN!
