Miller, author On a warm Galilean night, Mary and Joseph get to know each other (in the biblical sense) in a secluded garden in Nazareth. Nine months later, Marys pious mother, seeing that her young, unwed daughter is pregnant, enlists the help of a pompous high priest to characterize the pregnancy as divine, of Gods seed. When Mary refuses to go along with her mothers scheme, she and Joseph enter a battle with her parents over every aspect of the birth and the fate of their baby.As word of a miraculous virgin birth spreads through Bethlehem, factions form, and allegiances shift among unscrupulous shepherds, dubious Wise Men, an elderly innkeeper, an earnest but malodorous peasant and an aging cat with a penchant for prophecy-all trying to answer the crucial question: Is the baby named Jesus truly the Son of God or merely a mortal born of earthly parents? Author Biography Long ago, Bill Burkland spent his misguided youth attending Mass at Our Lady of Fatima on Sunday mornings and catechism class on Monday afternoons. In both cases, he pretended to listen earnestly while his undisciplined mind wandered to thoughts of girls, football, horse racing, and vices that are too numerous to list here but have been fully disclosed in several epic-length confessional visits. Unfortunately, these and other bad habits have followed Bill into adulthood resulting in the writing of The Misconceived Conception of a Baby Named Jesus. Despite these shortcomings, Bill has somehow managed to stay married to his high-school sweetheart, Shawn, for over 40 years, and they have somehow managed to raise three wonderful kids, each with equally wonderful partners.Prior to writing the Misconceived Conception, Bill spent 18 years as a Senior Manager and Director at Amazon.com with assignments in the US, Luxembourg and the UK. He held leadership roles in Amazons Retail, Kindle, B2B and Alexa organizations.
