Jesus Triumphant

A Novel of Christ’s Victory Over the Powers

The story of Christ like you’ve never heard it before.

Told through the eyes of the two thieves on the cross and the spiritual warfare hidden from mortal men but seen by Mary Magdalene.

It starts with the temptation in the desert by Satan and ends with Christ’s descent into Hades, his resurrection and his ascension.

What happened to Jesus when he died? What did he do in Hades those three days? Who were the train of captives in his ascension? Now, you’ll find out.

The story of Jesus Christ is told in the context of the Biblical motif of Messiah taking back the inheritance of the nations from the principalities and powers.

When it comes to spiritual warfare, Jesus was no pacifist.

 Written by respected Christian and best-selling Biblical author, Brian Godawa.

Jesus Triumphant is the eighth book in the faith-based supernatural epic Bible novel series Chronicles of the Nephilim that is perfect for readers of Frank Peretti, C.S. Lewis’ Narnia, Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings, and Ted Dekker.

Author Godawa shares an appendix that explores the Biblical theology of Christ’s descent into Hades, as well as the true nature of demons, the binding of spirits, the Gates of Hades and how it connects with Mount Hermon. You will never read the Gospels the same again.

Customer Reviews

“Great book. Great Series
Jesus Triumphal is not a retelling of the gospels event-by-event. Certain scenes are highlighted that feature the theme that runs through the entire series: The battle between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent.”

Randall Monte

“Bible-based novel as to what it might have been really like...
This book helped to bring the Bible even more alive for me. The characters are so real, just like living, breathing people. You can feel how they must have felt. This is the kind of novel I like to read. One that is based on truth, comes alive like watching a 3D movie and yet fills out the empty spaces of how it was. Or at least how it probably was.”

“This will send you back to the Bible to study it deeper with this new, vivid picture in your mind's eye.
I am a long-time Christian and this genre of Biblical fiction only complements the Word. Nothing I've read in this series alarmed me or seemed to contradict or twist scripture -- This series offers a very vivid picture of real people and real spiritual warfare, and, if anything, will send you back into the Bible to study it deeper with this new, vivid picture in your mind's eye.”

"The greatest story ever told" in the most creative manner yet!
Jesus Triumphant is my favorite in the series, The Chronicles of the Nephilim, as the scattered pieces of history and disconnected Sunday School stories and sermons come together like a giant jigsaw puzzle to finally, FINALLY make sense and elicit deep emotion and gratitude for what God has done.”

“Godawa brings Scripture to life!
Godawa skillfully weaves facts with adventure and fantasy. Tolkien himself would be impressed, I think.”
