The Jewish Supreme Court known as the Sanhedrin had already found Jesus Christ guilty of blasphemy and condemned him to die, setting in motion the events culminating in his death by crucifixion a few hours later. Why then would two of the most influential members of the Sanhedrin risk alienating their colleagues by removing Jesus' body from the cross and giving him a proper burial? Didn't they realize it was a lost cause-that Jesus' death proved he couldn't be either the Messiah or the son of God? Yet Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea risked everything they had worked so hard for throughout their lives by identifying with Jesus at a time when even his friends and disciples had deserted him. What had they learned in their investigations into Jesus' background and ministry that caused them to take such drastic action? For that matter, why had they investigated him in the first place? Is Jesus the Messiah-and what relevance does that have for us two thousand years later? "A compelling, inventive and moving novel . Extensive biblical, historical, geographical, archeological and linguistic research exudes from each page. Kincaid selected this novel approach--quite literally--as a creative-yet-solid mechanism for reporting key events in Jesus' ministry, as well as his death/burial/resurrection and the launch of the church . a great story." --Review published in The Baptist Standard "Bill Kincaid has learned well the art of crafting a historical novel. Here is a marvelously readable story that embodies the truth of Jesus the Messiah.
"--Dr. Paige Patterson, President of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary "Join Nicodemus on his quest. He was waiting for the Messiah. He was seeking the Messiah. He longed to meet the Messiah. Perhaps you can identify with Nicodemus. Haven't you been in his sandals? Haven't you, too, sought Jesus? If you haven't met the Messiah, you will by joining Bill Kincaid on the journey from the Jordan River to the cross. If you have already met the Redeemer, you will be renewed in your faith as you walk with Nicodemus.
Bill tells a remarkable story that will touch your heart and strengthen your faith!"-- Bryan Flanagan, VP of Sales and Training, Zig Ziglar Corporation "Bill Kincaid may well become the new John Grisham of Christian fiction. Nicodemus' Quest is an amazing weave of scripture into a spell-binding story of a behind the scenes investigation taken on by Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea. Even though this is a fictional account, the fact of the matter is that it could have actually happened, which makes this book all the more fascinating! This is also great reading because of the accuracy and detail of Jewish customs presented throughout the story."--Dr. Rix W. Tillman, Past President, Southern Baptists of Texas Pastor's Conference"Bill Kincaid has gathered what information and speculation there is about Nicodemus and combined it with Biblical prophecy and extensive research into the Jewish and Roman laws and culture of the times to create a plausible and well-rounded historical fiction about Nicodemus and his interactions with Jesus in 'Nicodemus' Quest.' Kincaid does a great job . It is a moving story, and a compelling one, that brings a portion of the Bible to life.
