Lit-Cast

The Gospel According to Jesus

Remarkably, of the several Books of the New Testament, not one was authored by the collection’s main protagonist—Jesus Christ. In this brief bout of exegesis, Randy Underdog offers a summation of Jesus’s life, told as autobiography. In doing so, he maintains an air of mystery and enigma worthy of the Bible, but also raises the larger questions of Perspective and Re-imagination. Enjoy this brief chapter from “The Gospel According to Jesus.”

BIO: Randy Underdog, a.k.a. Jesus Christ, is a former carpenter and rabbi who died for your sins. It says so in the Bible. A gospel by Jesus was rejected by the Nicean Council, but Randy has since been published in Confluence. Jesus hopes to someday judge the living and the dead.
