Short Stories Delve into Mysterious, Unexplained Portions of Scripture

Short Stories Delve into Mysterious, Unexplained Portions of Scripture

ENUMCLAW, Wash., October 28 /Christian Newswire/ -- Imagine yourself as a Roman soldier, ordered to crucify a man named Jesus. What thoughts would course through your mind as you carried out your grisly duties?

Author L.E. Azer explores one soldier's inner turmoil in "The Crucifier," one of two short stories in his new book, "The Crucifier & In The Beginning."


"All the movies I have seen about the crucifixion of our Lord leave out interesting facts. I was particularly intrigued by the words of the Roman officer who declared a poor Jew as 'the Son of God'."

Azer writes from the viewpoint of a soldier, chronicling the way in which the soldier begins to seek the truth about the One he is helping crucify.

Azer's second story, "In the Beginning," weaves a fictitious account of creation. The story is set in Astaria, a boundless dimension without beginning or end, where light prevails and shadows never exist.

"My goal is to help people better understand the heart and mind of God," he says. "If scientists can fantasize the theory of evolution, I can use Biblical knowledge to logically explain the existence of dinosaurs and the ice age."
