What reading level is The Gospel of Gladness book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It was the hour of the evening sacrifice, and the darkness began slowly to lift. It was then that the Nazarene uttered his only word of complaint. " I thirst," he said. Whereupon a strange thing happened. One of my soldiers, trained in the arena and in gladiatorial contests — one who had never been known to spare a foe, delighting in the sack of cities, look- ing on unmoved when children were dashed against the stones — this man dipped a sponge in the sour wine which was provided for the guard,... and would have raised it to the sufferer's lips. The Jews cried out, " Let be, let be, and let us see if Elias will come to his relief!" For a mo- ment the soldier hesitated, even joined in the cry, then giv- ing way to the better promptings of his heart, lifted the sponge and assuaged the thirst of the dying man. It was the only deed of kindness I noted on Golgotha that day.
THE centurion's STORY. 235 In return for it the Nazarene cast upon his benefactor such a look of gratitude that his nature seemed ever afterwards to have been transformed by it.
