Which is the correct view of Jesus' life?

Last night I had the most interesting insight. Earlier I had ruminated on how many movies, TV shows, articles and books, even mine, were offered this time of the year about the life of Jesus. And though they all covered the same general info, they each depicted the times and the life of Jesus with their own peculiar flavor and color.

So I 'asked' which is the correct view? As soon as I asked, that  'interesting insight' floated into my mind: "Each one is correct from the viewpoint of the writer as well as the viewer/reader. We see the world, each other and especially the past through our own needs, desires, prejudices and predetermined beliefs. After all, the world is but a shimmering illusion of perceptions that are continually shifting and changing."

Huh! Well, as "A Course in Miracles" student that pretty much made sense. So, "Snapshots of Jesus though the Lens of History" offers my humble viewpoint from hours of researching 'history' and the 'experts' and then blending it liberally with my own beliefs. If you would like this ACIM student's perspectives just click on the book in the left column.
