The Second Coming Rome Collier

Jack Strong, a veteran Middle East correspondent, is more than skeptical when he gets an assignment to write a feature story about a young prophet in the West Bank who some claim to be the Messiah. But the more Strong sees and the more he hears from the desert preacher, the more he comes to realize he is the real thing. Or is he? At the very least, Amal al-Rahim, the son of a Jewish mother and Arab father, has an important message for the world concerning the salvation of the human soul, and living in harmony with our fellow man, the Earth and the Universe. This novel, with realistic characters and engaging dialogue, also presents a clear picture of what the mass media reaction would be if Christ were to return today amid the backdrop of social and political turmoil and war in the Middle East.
