New Testament Stories from the Back Side: Bible Stories with a Twist

Using an approach similar to his other Back Side books, J. Ellsworth Kalas opens up new possibilities of insight into selected New Testament stories by entering them through the back side -- through a unique starting point, a creative retelling, a new lens, or the eyes of a minor or unsympathetic character. Includes 12 stories and a study guide.
