Author Randy Scannell leads a conversation about The Book of Yeshua: Chronicle of Our Spirit, volume three, a work of speculative history that reimagines the world of Yeshua and his relationship with the Breath of God. The discussion looks at what can truly be known about the historical figure, noting the absence of contemporary records and the distance between his life and the earliest written accounts in Greek for a Roman audience. It also considers a broader spiritual narrative called Our Spirit, presented as a force shaping social and political life from antiquity to today, with attention to current challenges that include attacks by white Christian nationalists. Influences and sources for the book include Reza Aslan’s Zealot, the Bible, the Gnostic Gospels, the Dead Sea Scrolls, biographies and histories such as those by Michael Grant, and additional research. The project began as a large manuscript and was divided into several volumes. This installment is the first to appear in print while standing third in the overall timeline, with future volumes envisioned on Zarathustra, Herod the Great, Mohammad, and Jane Addams, as well as a set of short biographies. Scannell’s background includes a BA in History with a minor in Humanistic Studies from the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, a Roman Catholic upbringing in the Midwest, and experience raising a blended family. His work history ranges from paperboy and store clerk to educator. Teaching took him to Lahore, Pakistan in 2001, where the first full day of school coincided with 9/11, followed by the next school year in Monterrey, Mexico. Most of his career was in special education, with a final post at Menominee Indian High School. After retiring from the classroom he served for a decade as a city alder in Green Bay, and his writing has appeared in fsm. and The Voyageur.
