Good Read

I just finished this book call Messiah of Morris Avenue. It was great. This is definately a book to read even if you are not religious. It was about a reporter who didn't have faith and hard time believing in things hearing of a young hispanic man preaching and performing miracles. He meets him and still doesn't believe he is who he says he is. The "messiah" preaches mostly to love one another, even your enemies. Even at the end of the book, after the young man has died he still has a hard time believing and having faith...but the message of the book is what I like. Its all about love..doesn't matter if you believe in God, the bible, or Jesus, if you live by the simple principle to love..then that is all that matters. It is truly a touching and aspiring book to read.

Sounds like an interesting read!

Being Jewish, I kinda know that Jewish people believe the Messiah will come one day.

The "messiah" will bring all things back to LOVE, LIFE and togetherness.

I didn't know the Messiah was also in the hispanic religion... interesting.

Nice to know you enjoyed!
