Ježiš a Kristus, dvojčatá odlišné ako deň a noc. Ježiš, zdravé chlapčisko, prekypuje životom, zatiaľ čo Kristus sa modlí, číta, neskôr robí aj zázraky... a zapisuje všetko, čo Ježiš povie a vykoná, ba občas to aj trošku pozmení. Jeden nechce cirkev a ni Písmo, ale anjel, ktorý navštevuje toho druhého mu vraví, že bez cirkvi a Písma vyjde všetko nazmar, lebo ľudstvo na všetko zabudne; vraví mu: Ty si to, čo Ježišovi chýba. Román Dobrák Ježiš a lotor Kristus je kniha o tom, ako vznikajú veľké príb ehy.
