Silvianity — Charles Turner

Silvianity is a penetrating critique of what has happened to Christianity. It turns your whole sense of Jesus' message upside down when his attacks are on the leaders of all our Christian denominations, instead of ancient Jewish leaders. It imagines the Jesus story in the context of 21st Century America. In some ways that makes it all different, reflecting the realities of modern life. We know Jesus as a public figure, but imagine looking behind the scenes at a private life in today's society.

Oh, and this modern Jesus is an outsider named Silvia, as hard to accept as a Messiah as Jesus must have been.
