Outskirts Author’s New Book Sheds Light on Christ’s Message
www.michaelchechtpe.com
January 7, Denver, CO and Kansas City, MO – An eye-opening and thought-provoking read, Michael Hecht’s “Is It Him? Volume 1” is a journey into one man’s religious experience that, according to the author, might or might not be divinely inspired.
Just published by Outskirts Press and soon to be available now through the company’s online bookstore at outskirtspress.com/store.php, “Is It Him?” presents Hecht’s profound visions of the wisdom of Jesus Christ through a cacophony of voices in prose and poetry. Different from most works dealing with Christian fundamentals, the book eschews traditional Biblical explication and instead presents first-person vignettes of the divine spirit’s efforts, over the centuries, to bring man into the fold, as well as His dealings with an earthly scribe who would dutifully record the divine truth.
This enlightening book was penned seemingly of inspiration received from a higher muse, reports Hecht. It follows visions of Christ’s wisdom that began coming to him beginning in 1995, after Hecht discovered “The Gospel of John,” According to Jakob Lorber, which describes the day-to-day experience of Christ’s ministry on Earth. As its title suggests, however, “Is It Him?” challenges readers to come to their own conclusions. “My soul is definitely earthbound, but my writings seems as they are from above,” he writes. “It is up to the reader to decide. I can barely decide myself!”
This unique title is a must for those seeking a deeper understanding of the fundamental Christian experience. “Is It Him?” will soon be available by the end of January through Ingram, Baker & Taylor, Amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and the online bookstore of Outskirts Press, at outskirtspress.com/store.php.
ISBN: 978-1-4327-1613-4 Format: 5.5 x 8.5 paperback or 5.5 x 8.5 casebound Pages: 92 SRP: $21.95 Genre: Fiction

Outskirts Press Author’s Newest Work Continues Insights into Christ’s Message
January 8, Denver, CO and Kansas City, MO – The second in an important series examining the precepts of Christianity from the unique perspective of the Christ himself, Michael Hecht’s new book, “Is It Him? Volume 2,” is an enlightening read that continues the work set out in the first installment.
The book, published this week by Outskirts Press, Inc., and immediately available through the company’s online bookstore at outskirtspress.com/store.php, deals with nothing less than man’s past, present and future relationship with God—from Christianity’s nascent beginnings to visions of a final Judgment Day. In a mystical prose style that challenges readers to think more deeply about their received knowledge of Christianity and the Bible, Hecht’s book sheds light on the connection between the true divine consciousness and its mediated representation through texts, opening up a broader spiritual meaning. The picture that emerges is a fascinating portrait that might just change the way readers approach their relationship with God, the earth and each other.
As in Volume 1, this subsequent work took form through divine inspiration, Hecht reports. It follows visions of Christ’s wisdom that began coming him beginning in 1995, after Hecht discovered “The Gospel of John,” by Jakob Lorber, which describes the day-to-day experience of Christ’s ministry on Earth. As its title suggests, however, “Is It Him?” challenges readers to come to their own conclusions.
“Is It Him? Volume 2” interprets in a unique and eye-opening way the divine spirit’s efforts to guide his flock toward the truth that would guarantee eternal salvation according to the Christian understanding. The title is a must for those seeking a deeper knowledge of the fundamental Christian experience. “Is It Him? Volume 2” is immediately available through Ingram, Baker & Taylor, Amazon.com, barnesandnoble.com, and the online bookstore of Outskirts Press, at outskirtspress.com/store.php.
