Well-written and uplifting
|
In this interesting book, Christian authors Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins take the Biblical story of the death of Christ and the birth of Christianity, and retell it from the viewpoint of John Mark, friend of Simon Peter and author of the second Gospel. Everything is covered here, from the Last Supper, through the death of our Lord, the arrival of the Apostle Paul, and ending with the deaths of the Apostle Peter and his wife in Rome.
Now, as has been already noted, this book relies heavily on the Biblical account, and does not go far beyond it. Indeed, even the extra-Biblical history, such as the death of Peter, is not embellished on. This means that anyone who has been a believer for a while will find that the story does not say anything that he or she didn't already know.
But, that said, I did find this to be a well-written and uplifting book. I enjoyed reading the old familiar story, as seen from a new angle. I really enjoyed this interesting book, and don't hesitate to recommend it. |
