The Priscilla Diary

"The Priscilla Diary" by Gene Edwards takes readers into the first century and tells the story of Priscilla, a remarkable woman of the New Testament. As a co-worker of Paul and partner of Aquila, Priscilla becomes a witness to the emergence and challenges of the early church. In the form of a reflective personal account, the novel provides insights into the intimate lives of the first believers, who suffered persecution, wrestled with theological questions, and learned to live as a community in Christ. The narrative begins after the riots in Ephesus and spans the final years of Paul, as Priscilla recounts her travels through the Roman world, encounters with apostles and gatherings, as well as moments of profound spiritual discovery. Readers experience the unfolding mission of the apostolic church, personal reflections on Paul's letters, and the cost and courage of early Christian discipleship. Edwards' distinctive narrative style combines historical imagination with deep spiritual insight, offering both a captivating novel and a thoughtful meditation on the nature of the church. "The Priscilla Diary" is ideal for readers of Christian historical fiction and for anyone interested in the stories of the early believers.
