Publisher's Synopsis
Essex Story is a secular re-imagining of the Gospel of Matthew in a contemporary setting - Essex, England!
Suppose someone like Jesus were around today. Would he like what he saw? What would be his main concerns? Would he fall prey to modern temptations? What would be his model for living? Would he attract followers? Would he be denied? Would he be betrayed? Follow the adventures of Jez Lamb and his friends, as they take on gangsters and corrupt multi-national financial organisations, and try to spread a message of respect and love for each other and for the planet.
