~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Blurb from the back:-

This is a novel of the emerging church,
The fierce debates of its borning, and the crossing of the gospel of christ from jerusalem to rome.
This is a novel, particularly, of the man who bore that gospel east to west with fury and faith and tenderness.
Paul, in personality and learning- he is the hinge of history.
--walter wangerin jr.

Saul of Tarsas: Pharisee of Pharisees.

Bitter enemy of the newborn church...until a blinding encounter with the risen Christ transformed him into Paul the apostle, ambassador of Jesus to the Gentiles.

Master storyteller Walter Wangerin Jr. sweeps you into the life and times of the man who brought Christianity to the world. Here is Paul the person, living and complex, viewed through the eyes of his contemporaries. His rich interaction and brilliant dialogue with friends and foes, leaders and slaves, Jews and Greeks, creates a drama-swift, intense, historical. In vibrant pigments of the imagination and narrated by ten distinct historical figures, Wangerin paints a moving, multifaceted portrait of the fiery character wholse Gospel message sundered cultural trappings to ignite a faith that would light the ages.
