KINGSLEY, Pa. (PRWEB) June 12, 2017 -- An author and pastor has published his contemporary novel that brings a modern-day perspective to the ageless conversation of how Jesus Christ is both fully human and fully divine. In introducing readers to a 19-year-old character who embodies Jesus’ essence, power and heart, William Hagenbuch presents a breakthrough novel, titled “Jesus Cloned,” for church-goers, deep thinkers and anyone who loves to question or explore how God came to Earth in human form.
Through the technology of cloning, Hagenbuch creates a carefree Bible college student who, after being abducted to a private, $1 billion lab, gets the shock of his life: He has been cloned from 2,000-year-old DNA that may be Jesus Christ’s. Hagenbuch reaches out to a wide audience through an eclectic cast of characters who learn individually what the clone discovers after choosing a sinful life – that God is within all people.
“I wrote this to show how continually imaginative and far-reaching our God is,” Hagenbuch said. “From a pastor’s heart, I speak to people who are bruised, broken or beaten by religion. I also include those who love Jesus and want to consider the Divine in a new, refreshing light.”
Gentle, honest and surprising, “Jesus Cloned” has a mission: to help people relate to God in exciting ways. The novel opens theological doors once closed or never fully opened. Through his nearly 10 years of pastoral experience, Hagenbuch offers readers a connection to Christ that is personal, relatable and identifiable.
