Chapters

Description

A vivid portrait emerges of the first followers of the new Faith, imagined through the lens of rigorous historical research. Blending authentic letters, archaeological findings and ancient chronicles, the author breathes life into the disciples and apostles as real people—courageous, flawed, and driven by a vision that outshone the turmoil of their world. Listeners will travel alongside them from the Jordan’s banks to the bustling streets of Rome, feeling the weight of their convictions amid hostile empires and relentless persecution.

The narrative balances fact with thoughtful imagination, using a semi‑secular protagonist to explore how the early believers might have thought and acted. Each episode shines a spotlight on pivotal moments—secret gatherings, daring escapes, and the quiet moments of doubt—while keeping the larger mystery of their journeys intact. It’s a compelling invitation to experience the spirit of an age where faith was both a fragile hope and a fierce, unquenchable light.
