The Crucifixion Trilogy

One cross. Three men. Three decisions that changed history.

Just Short of the Cross — Thirty Coins and a Kiss

What drove Judas Iscariot to betray Jesus?

History remembers the thirty pieces of silver and the kiss in the garden—but the story behind the betrayal may be far more complicated. Just Short of the Cross explores the inner struggle of the disciple who walked beside Jesus, heard His teaching, and still chose a path that would change history forever.

Was Judas motivated by greed, disappointment, political hope, or something deeper? Through a thoughtful blend of Scripture and historical imagination, this novel invites readers to step into the troubled heart of the man whose decision helped lead Jesus to the cross.

The Cross Between Us

Two criminals. One cross between them.

Both men were condemned. Both watched the same suffering Savior. Yet one cursed the man beside him, while the other whispered a simple plea: “Remember me.”

The Cross Between Us explores the lives of the two thieves whose final moments unfolded beside Jesus. Through their stories, readers witness how two men standing only feet apart could respond to the same moment in completely different ways—one with bitterness, the other with faith.

At the cross, the distance between rejection and redemption can be only a few words.

Pontius Pilate — The Man Who Judged the King

Pontius Pilate held the power of Rome in his hands. Yet the man standing before him carried a truth no empire could control.

In Pontius Pilate — The Man Who Judged the King, readers step into the mind of the Roman governor tasked with deciding the fate of Jesus of Nazareth. Torn between political pressure, public unrest, and the uneasy sense that the prisoner before him was no ordinary man, Pilate faced a decision that would echo through history.

What thoughts passed through his mind as he washed his hands before the crowd? And what does it mean to judge a king?
