JOSH is an imaginary, fictional version of the Biblical story of Jesus of Nazareth told by his mother, Mary. While the story relies upon and alludes to the Biblical narrative, it contains little of the symbolism and cultural philosophy and prophecy on which the original story is based. The focus of this story is on the human character of The One whose simple life and radical message changed the course of history for time and eternity.
