An Uncensored Testament

It didn't happen on a dusty road to Damascus. It happened in a field in Upstate New York.

On a sweltering June afternoon, my world thinned. Through the haze of heat, a figure appeared-not as a ghost or an angel, but as a solid, impossibly calm man who knew my name. After two millennia of silence, Jesus of Nazareth was ready to talk.

What followed was not a sermon, but a series of candid, challenging, and world-altering conversations. We didn't discuss religion as you know it. We deconstructed it. We talked about Yahweh, the "god in his head" he had to overcome. We talked about a universe animated not by a divine king, but by a natural, impersonal force of love and coherence he called "Father." We talked about what it means to be human in a cosmos that is not watching, judging, or waiting to punish.

An Uncensored Testament is presented in two parts. Part One is the full, uncensored account of those dialogues. Part Two is The Framework-a series of "Movements" that explore the core principles of a resonant life, from the nature of love and grace to the daily practice of coherence.

This is not just a story; it is an invitation to a new way of seeing.

"I died because the world couldn't tolerate undomesticated love. Those who live it always face a cross."- Jesus of Nazareth

About the Authors

BRIEN NORRIS is a writer, philosopher, speaker, and livestock farmer living in Upstate New York. His bestselling books include Too Stuck to Move and Affirmations for A**holes.

JESUS OF NAZARETH is a legendary advocate for love and the unwitting founder of a religious movement that began in Roman-occupied Judea over 2,000 years ago. While charged with an act of sedition and executed by crucifixion in around 33 CE, the reason he died was far more liberating than meets the eye.
