Synopsis

Experience the psalms like never before -- through heart-pounding fiction!

Praetorian Prefect Sextus Burrus has spent his life fighting for the glory of Rome, but that glory has lost its shine. As both his health and his career crumble, he is drawn toward the seemingly inexhaustible peace of one of his Jewish prisoners, the Apostle Paul.

The moment Timothy hears his mentor and surrogate father Paul has been arrested, he rushes to Rome. Under the looming threat of execution, Timothy struggles to make sense of what is happening. Finally, an unexpected crisis requires him to reexamine everything, and places their hope for Paul's freedom on the shoulders of Praetorian Prefect Sextus Burrus.

Read today to see the early Roman Christian church brought to life through the lens of Psalm 42!
