This short novel is about the commonwealth of Israel, inspired by the scroll called Acts, wherein we see the narrative connected to Luke's gospel. This is a view of church history. That history served and still serves as the exciting period in Christian history stretching from the days just after the resurrection of Christ to the first generation of Christians led by the apostles, the time when Christian ideas were being formulated and when the organization of the church into a worldwide movement was being developed. The actions of the apostles are punctuated by Peter's activities, John's exertions, and Philip's exercises: but the bulk of the early blessings of God's colony from heaven seemed to be centered around Paul and his connection with the Christian movement - even though the power of that colony was found in Christ the Hebrew. If that were not enough, this modern book is sprinkled with images selected by the Texas author who is continually being transformed by the actions of the apostles (emissaries) who lived long before him.
