February 2026 Book Discussion

Read the book, The Diary of Jesus Christ
by Fr. Bill Cain, S.J., and join us on 
Monday, Feb. 23 for an engaging book discussion

There are two meeting options:

• 10:30 am in Ignatius House
• 7:00 pm on Zoom

As we enter Lent, Fr Cain’s imaginative representation of Jesus as a human being will probably stretch your perception of the man called Jesus. Hopefully, it will help you journey through Lent with a different lens.

Fr. Bill Cain’s The Diary of Jesus Christ is a first-person recounting of the life of Jesus, a new lens through which to see the familiar stories of the gospel—including the Passion.

While obviously not really the diary of Jesus Christ, here is a first-person account of the life of Jesus by noted Jesuit playwright, Bill Cain. The diary places us inside Jesus's consciousness, where the spirit of discovery, surprise, learning, doubt, failure and growth is in sharp contrast to the canonical gospels where Jesus seems, from the start, self-assured and even predestined to fulfill his role. It is a bold attempt to understand the person whom more than two billion people claim as their savior.

A reading guide is coming soon.
