I received a copy of the book I Saul from Worthy
Publishing in exchange for a review of this book. This review is my
honest opinion.
I am not a fan of fiction. Fiction is to
unreal to me. So I was a little nervous and excited at the same time
about reading this book. Especially with the authors trying to bring the past of history and the present of fiction together. This book had a lot to live up to. After all it was written by two of my favorite
people. Jerry Jenkins and Pastor James MacDonald.
Though
the character of Augie is fiction. He could be the person sitting next
to you at church or the neighbor that lives next door. He is a loving
son. He loves the Lord and tries to help others who are in need. He loves
and cherishes the lady he is engage to. He is a good friend and protector. If I had a man in mind to marry
Augie would be the perfect example.
The other main character is Luke who we are all familiar with. Luke is not a fictional character. Luke
lived and really was a part of the life of the Apostle Paul. Luke is
very caring and patient. He was truly a servant to Paul. He writes down
whatever Paul ask him to write. Luke is to be commended because he never grows tired of Paul and I
believe he suffered along with Paul as Paul was in chains for the gospel
In this book the parchment of The Apostle Paul is found by someone and manages to get into the wrong hands. The person tries to make a profit of the parchment. Augie, his fiance Sofia and his friend Roger relentlessly try to and fights to prevent the parchment from being exploited for gain.
This is a great book and I highly recommend it. In I Saul fiction and non-fiction meets and it was so real.
