Admittedly I am not a religious person, however I am a history buff who is very intrigued by theology so at first it was the title of this book that drew me in. However, I was soon to realize what a goldmine I had discovered. "The Jesus Cure" by Ron T. Deloy was utterly, 100% fascinating and a great read. I believe that no matter what your beliefs or convictions that everybody can take something from this book.The protagonist Tony was extremely relatable. At first he was emotionally distant, jaded by life and by society, but then he embarks on a journey that has him retracing the life of Christ. From a historical perspective the author knew his stuff, and from the emotional perspective the author did something I've not seen done before, something new... he humanized Jesus. Instead of presenting him as this larger than life deity, untouchable to many, he presented him as a man and the effect was a haunting as it was moving. In other words, it resonated and will stick with me for quite some time.I enjoyed this book very much and would definitely recommend it!
