Most people know Jesus from the four gospels in the Bible and have built up a picture from that material. In our times, other writings have been found that show a very different Jesus, such as the gospels of Thomas, Mary Magdalene and Judas. The Jesus in those writings is much more spiritual, sometimes even a mystic, showing us the way to our inner selves through insights that we also come across in Buddhism, Hinduism and Taoism.

This touching novel tells us about Jesus’ childhood, the untold story that cannot be found in the Bible. The recently discovered manuscripts help shape the story. The author has woven some wonderful spiritual insights into the narrative. Judas is for instance no longer the traitor and Mary Magdalene no longer the whore.

The story brings Jesus close like never before, wrestling in a very human way with the burden that has been placed on his shoulders. The choices that he has to make are so identifiable that many readers will recognise aspects of themselves in him.

Reactions from readers:

“What a fantastic book Jesus, the untold story is. I was really touched by it and I came across it at just the right time. My compliments.”

“I came across Jesus, the untold story by chance and it touched me in the deepest part of my soul. You have told the tale so beautifully, with so much positivity and purity. I even had to wipe away a tear a couple of times...”

“Jesus, the untold story: a book like a warm bath. Thank you ever so much, Gerjo!”


In The Press

Life story of Jesus of Nazareth. The author describes Jesus as a spiritual figure: a boy and later man who inspired his environment and lived to spread the message from God. Because the early life of Jesus gets most attention in this story, it makes the whole fascinating. Very well written and easy to read book with wisdom and spiritual insights. Dutch Library Association.

This book delivers what it promises: you get a different view of Jesus. The story carries you away. This alone helps to get rid of a certain image and see everything from a different perspective. I find it very strong. Piet Monsma, pastor PKN (Dutch Protestant Church).

In this book we get to know Jesus as a very special man who was inspired by God's spirit. It is fascinating to read the famous stories from a very human perspective. The book therefore offers a new and broader angle on the New Testament. The most important message is that the Kingdom of God is closer than we think: it is in ourselves! Blog ‘Relimam’.

What a fantastic book Jesus, the untold story is. I was really touched by it and I came across it at just the right time. My compliments. Noortje Light, reader.

I came across Jesus, the untold story by chance and it touched me in the deepest part of my soul. You have told the tale so beautifully, with so much positivity and purity. I even had to wipe away a tear a couple of times. Ilona van der Zijden, reader.

Jesus, the untold story: a book like a warm bath. Thank you ever so much, Gerjo! Fred London, reader.
