The Beloved of the Creator is a story of Catechist Mark Bassey Obotama. The author who is the first child of Catechist Obotama takes the reader through the journey of his late father from birth to death. He portrays the leading hand of God in this journey. Most part of the narrative is very emotional as he presents the early childhood of his father who lost his parents at the age of six and was left alone to cater for himself. His contact with the white missionaries changed the course of events as he embraced Catholicism. The book is a testimony of God becoming a parent to an orphan and the cooperative response of the orphan in faith which led him to become a teacher, a preacher, a father and a grandfather, blessed with seven children among whom are two Catholic priests and a Nun.
Millions of people in the world today can identify themselves as Christians and thousands of churches spread across the globe. When one looks at the different and sometimes conflicting tenets propagated by these followers of Jesus it is apparent that not everybody who professes to be Christian truly knows Jesus. This book, But Who Do Say That I Am?, interrogates the individuals relationship with Christ in the context of a personal answer to this question. Some people only follow Jesus the miracle worker, who turned water into wine, and run away from Jesus the suffering servant, who cried aloud on the cross in the midst of excruciating suffering.
