When Marshall was asked why he chose now to write his new book "Bob Dylan: A Spiritual Life", he explained how strong of an impact Jesus and Jewish's roots had had on Dylan, which are both part of his story.

"Christianity can have different meanings for different people, as for Dylan, it seems more about the figure of Jesus than the following of an organized religion. Dylan appears to be a child of God, not tethered to any religion for religion's sake, but trying to pursue the Truth, clay feet and all." Marshall's words made sure that it hasn't been an easy trip for Dylan.
