Description
Step into the first century through the eyes of one of the New Testament's most remarkable women.
In The Priscilla Diary, Gene Edwards brings to life the story of Priscilla-coworker of Paul, partner with Aquila, and witness to the birth and struggle of the early church. Told as a reflective personal account, this novel invites readers into the intimate world of the first believers as they faced persecution, wrestled with doctrine, and learned what it meant to live together as one body in Christ.
Beginning after the upheaval in Ephesus and stretching through Paul's final years, Priscilla recounts journeys across the Roman world, encounters with apostles and assemblies, and moments of profound spiritual discovery.
Along the way, readers witness:
¿ The unfolding mission of the apostolic church
¿ Personal reflections on Paul's letters and ministry
¿ The cost and courage of early Christian discipleship
¿ A powerful vision of the church as one corporate body in Christ
Written in Edwards' signature narrative style, this story blends historical imagination with deep spiritual insight, offering both a compelling novel and a thoughtful meditation on the nature of the church.
Perfect for readers of Christian historical fiction and those drawn to stories of the early believers, The Priscilla Diary provides a moving and memorable journey into the heart of first-century faith.
