Description
Jennifer Barnes discovers she was cloned from the DNA of Jesus. What could go wrong?
Elizabeth Barnes, a brilliant agnostic scientist, recovers and uses DNA from a legendary burial cloth - the Sudarium - to impregnate herself and give birth to a clone of Christ, creating chaos for her daughter and the world. When the identity of this 30-year-old woman cloned from Jesus is revealed, the media go wild, and people everywhere react. Her name is Jennifer, and she is not exactly a poster child for the Church. She has lesbian friends, uses he/she pronouns for God, and fights against domestic violence. The saying 'You're a child of God' takes on new meaning as her life is put in danger, she starts to fall for an FBI agent, and global conflict between religions escalates.
Sudarium explores what it means to live with integrity and courage as a person of faith. It disrupts stale views about gender among Christians and invites its readers to pursue their spirituality with fresh eyes in the context of radically loving oneself and others
A Note From the Publisher
I'm the CEO of Greatheart Consulting, and a graduate of Fuller Theological Seminary (MA in Social Ethics). I'm well-positioned to promote Sudarium and future books (this book is the start of a planned trilogy) to both secular and faith-based audiences via my websites and social media following, talks, interviews, articles, and blogging.
Advance Praise
A compelling thriller that intertwines religious intrigue with cutting-edge science, delivering a provocative and suspenseful tale with high-stakes and complex characters. A must-read for anyone who is searching for a unique, edge-of-your-seat book that’ll leave you wanting more.
