Priscilla & Aquila

Lois Henderson's final, triumphant novel retells the New Testament story of the wise and courageous Priscilla. This touching story recounts the enduring love of Priscilla's marriage to a Aquila, one that withstood adversity and persecution; their conversion to Christianity and encounter with the Apostle Paul; Priscilla's personal experience of Christ; and her understanding of the importance of women within the Christian community. Spanning the years A.D. 48 to A.D. 54, the book vividly re-creates the world of the early churches as the narrative sweeps readers along from Rome to Corinth, to the fateful voyage to Ephesus, and the dramatic events climaxing in the rescue of Paul that forever changes the course of life for Priscilla and Aquila. "Both historically accurate and vivid, this book will appeal to a wide variety of readers. The writers combine the excitement and danger of life in New Testament times with the characters' struggle for balance in their marriage. Reader interest will be maintained from start to finish." - Bookstore Journal - Back cover.
