About this book
Enter the world of ancient Rome through the eyes of one of history's most transformative figures. The Apostle by John Pollock seamlessly weaves together drama, scholarship, and historical accuracy in this book about the apostle Paul's extraordinary life. Starting with the dramatic death of Stephen, you'll witness Paul's incredible transformation from persecutor to preacher. Follow him on his daring missionary journeys that took him to the far corners of the Roman Empire, where he spread the teachings of Christianity. Through detailed maps and a study guide, readers can choose to look deeper into the historical and New Testament aspects of Paul's life or simply enjoy it as a compelling true-life story. Originally published in 1969, and later revised, this newer edition breathes fresh life into a timeless tale. As you immerse yourself in this rich narrative, you'll find yourself on a journey of discovery, uncovering the complexities of Paul's character, his unwavering faith, and the profound impact he had on the world.
