Born, raised, and fully immersed in the male-dominated culture of the strictest sect of Judaism, Saul of Tarsus grows from persecuting women to misunderstanding women, to being rescued by women, to frustrating women, to commissioning women, and, finally, to partnering with women. Through his experiences as he follows the bidding of Christ Jesus, he develops beyond his limited vision of the role of women, not only in his life but in the development of the early church.

Through the grace of Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit, the Apostle to the Gentiles empowered women to be full participants in the body and to develop their leadership skills through his example. This fictionalized account of Paul’s journey with Christ highlights this important aspect of his ministry, taking us on a tour of the Roman empire in the first century AD, and brings us closer to the source of our joy and hope.
