Description:
This is a poetic, passionate, and deeply spiritual portrait of the man from Nazareth and his guardian angel messenger. In a wilderness encounter with his ancestors, Jesus learns that "by being full of God, you will be full of an inner beauty that will seduce many to fall madly in love with God." The prophet-poet on these pages is led by "the Spirit Wind" to proclaim God's time in action, thought, word, and deed.

This is a poetic, passionate, and deeply spiritual portrait of the man from Nazareth and his guardian angel messenger. In a wilderness encounter with his ancestors, Jesus learns that "by being full of God, you will be full of an inner beauty that will seduce many to fall madly in love with God." The prophet-poet on these pages is led by "the Spirit Wind" to proclaim God's time in action, thought, word, and deed. He squares off with his shadow; builds bridges between people; includes women in his "little family"; learns from pain; helps others to see themselves as God sees them; celebrates the mystery of life; travels lightly; affirms dancing, sex, and creativity; enables his disciples to create great memories; feasts on love; and is transformed after death into the Risen Jesus — the New Adam.
As he has done in his other 18 books, Edward Hays opens our eyes to the presence of God in the midst of our days. This wild, wise, mystical, and imaginative Jesus romances us with glad tidings about love "as free as the wind and as fenceless as the horizon." A hundred page "Reader's Companion" at the end of this sacred drama is filled with Hays's enlightening scriptural commentary and meditative musings. "The Gospel of Gabriel" is a watershed work on Jesus that is poignant and practical.
