Brings the Apostle Paul to life!,
This review is from: Paul (Hardcover)
Walter Wangerin, Jr. did an amazing job of weaving Biblical history, secular history, and his imagination into a fascinating and believable tale. It helped me better understand the context of Biblical events in history, taking stories with which I am familiar and helping me understand what was going on politically at the time. Now when I read the Bible, the stories and people have come to life for me! It was a hard book to put down! (And I am online right now buying a copy for my Dad.)

This review is from: Paul (Hardcover)
Walter Wangerin deftly exploits many voices from varying strata of society, and of differing convictions, to portray how the famous apostle to the gentiles may have been viewed by his contemporaries. As with "The Book of God", Walter Wangerin's writing style is sufficiently engaging to keep the book moving along and make what could be a "heavy read" interesting and digestible.
