About this listen

"If you've ever wished you could travel back in time to the days of Jesus and ask all of the most difficult questions, this is the novel for you. The Carpenter's Son brings Christ into our modern world and will fill the reader with love, hope and faith in, not just God, but a better world."—#1 New York Times bestselling author Richard Paul Evans

Perfect for fans of The Shack and The Case for Christ, this inspirational novel is a reminder that, even in the darkest times, we are never alone.

Award-winning journalist Brooklyn Sterling has built her career exposing frauds, corrupt politicians, and conmen in the pages of the Boston Globe. Hardened by personal tragedy and deeply skeptical of anything resembling faith, she's the last person to believe in miracles. So, when a series of so-called "divine acts" sweep through Boston—including lives inexplicably saved, a blind man suddenly seeing, and a child brought back to life—Brooklyn is determined to uncover the truth and expose the hoax.

But Brooklyn's latest investigation takes an unexpected turn when she encounters a mysterious stranger who seems to appear at every miraculous event. As she digs deeper, the lines between skepticism and belief blur, and her carefully constructed worldview begins to crumble.

When tragedy strikes close to home, Brooklyn is offered an opportunity no atheist could ever imagine: spend a day with Jesus Christ himself. In a journey filled with hard questions and unexpected answers, Brooklyn confronts the pain of her past, the world's deepest struggles, and the mystery of faith. From a family broken by loss to a carpenter's son who sees the heart of everyone he meets, Brooklyn is drawn into a story that will challenge everything she believes.

The Carpenter's Son is a moving and thought-provoking novel that invites listeners to walk alongside Jesus, laugh, cry, and see the world through his eyes. With unforgettable characters, profound insights, and a story of redemption and hope, this book will renew your faith in God, humanity, and the power of love.
