In first-century Ephesus, life is not easy for women. A young wife
meets her daily struggles with equanimity and courage. She holds
poverty and hunger at bay, fights to keep her child healthy and
strong, and navigates the unpredictability of her husband's
temperament. But into the midst of her daily fears and worries, a
new hope appears: a teaching that challenges her society's most
basic assumption. What is this new teaching? And what will it
demand of her? In this gripping novel, Holly Beers introduces us to
the first-century setting where the apostle Paul first proclaimed
the gospel. Illuminated by historical images and explanatory
sidebars, this lively story not only shows us the rich tapestry of
life in a thriving Greco-Roman city, it also foregrounds the
interior life of one courageous woman-and the radical new freedom
the gospel promised her.
