Can a believer survive the persecutions of Rome? Centurion Quintus Maximus Varo, a soldier in the army of Rome, fights to understand how his new-found faith can mesh with the heathenistic and demanding environment of life in the Imperial Army. Meanwhile, Simon Peter, an orphaned Ashkelon fisherman taken in by his uncle, attempts to decide if revenge is ever a motive to pursue a questionable and dangerous quest. Set between 33 and 94AD, To Take On Rome follows the lives and adventures of these two men and their wives, friends and families, from the destruction of Jerusalem to John's exile on Patmos, as they meet and interact with Jesus' disciples and followers in locations throughout the known world. Wrestling with questions of family, faith, morality and forgiveness, these characters attempt to reconcile the same internal and external struggles subjugating our flesh to the guidance of the Spirit, that we even today as believers, must ponder, face and conquer. A novel of Christian adventure that may also make you question how you would react in such circumstances, revenge or forgiveness? No language, sex or vulgarity but violence, as this time in World History was rather violent in its entirety. Voluntary rating PG13.
