A reluctant messiah. A power-hungry preacher. The hilarious battle for hearts and minds is only beginning...Jessica McCloud knows firsthand that it's impossible to fit in when you're God's only begotten daughter. While the girl possesses the power to smite and a direct line to the Almighty, she'd give it all up for a few more friends ... or a reliable set of God-proof earplugs.
Misunderstood and socially outcast, the messiah-in-the-making forms a bond with the only other person who knows her Father personally: a charismatic preacher who played heavenly messenger during her nativity. But the more time she spends with him, the less about his past adds up. And why does he always grill her with questions about feral pigs?

But the more time she spends with him, the less about his past adds up. And why does he always grill her with questions about feral pigs?
After a close shave with a pervy demon, a soul-crushing betrayal, and a ritualistic public shaming, she suspects she's heading for the same grisly finale as her half-brother two millennia before. Is Jessica's eternal fate sealed or can a little teen rebellion forge a new destiny?The Beginning is the first book in the Jessica Christ series of hilarious satire novels. If you enjoy a touch of blasphemy, unforgettable characters, and subversive smackdowns of polite society, then you'll love H. Claire Taylor's fresh take on feminism, religion, and politics.Buy The Beginning to have your comedy prayers answered today!
