My new book, The Great Awakening by Jerry Scrivo was written to track what happened to the Apostles after Jesus’ resurrection. When did they finally take the Gospel beyond Judea into the Roman empire?
How many actually left Judea? Where did they go? How successful were they? Were they all martyred as Jesus predicted? When and how did they die? How was St John different and why?
Other questions answered were about their followers. Who were the early acolytes of the Apostles? What was their role in spreading the Good News? What did they do? How did they do it? What was their fate? Were they effective?
Did the early church fathers do it on their own? What role did GOD plan in their miraculous success? How did the early church survive unrelenting persecution by both Jews and Roman? Why did they succeed in the face of insurmountable obstacles?
All these questions and more are answered in this book. If you would like to put the New Testament scriptures into context, this book is a must read for you!
The reason we fail to see GOD is that we fail to look for him. We think He is a distant score keeper judging us from a distance.
But nothing could be further from the truth. I hope that by reading this book readers will become AWAKE to the true nature of events occurring daily around them.
