Tom Mach is a District 2 member of Kansas Authors Club. He shares the following:

Hi, I’m Tom Mach, and a long-time member of the Kansas Authors Club and winner of awards, including the Coffin Award (2003), the Nelson Poetry Book Award (2008), the Lifetime Achievement Award (2014), and the 2021 Overall Winner Award for Barnes & Noble for my latest book, Three Years With Jesus. My bio is on Tom-Mach.com

Imagine what it would be like to read the story of Jesus' life, beginning with His baptism and ending with His glorious ascension into heaven without having to read each gospel separately. Three Years With Jesus is the result of a careful compilation of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, fitted together with portions taken from the testimony of an Italian Catholic mystic named Maria Valtorta who claims who had several visitations in the 1940s from the Lord Himself. Some minor fictional elements were added to make the story even more interesting to read. The actual words of Jesus as given in the Bible are scattered through the story.

The result is an informative, in-depth, nonfiction novel that may tell us more about what happened during the last three years of Jesus' life on earth than you realize. For instance, this book describes details about Jesus' Passion, with such realist occurrences as how bystanders threw stones at Him as He carried His cross, or how He had to beg for a filthy rag before being nailed to the cross, or how Jesus screamed as the nail penetrated His flesh--only to stop when He saw His mother’s torment by His scream. In other words, the entire story of Jesus's last three years on Earth will really come alive for you.
