Living Faith: Hunted by Rome

Living Faith: Hunted by Rome

Rome hunts the faithful. One scroll, one woman, and one searching soldier may hold the key to survival. In the shadow of Emperor Domitian’s growing persecution, the early Christian church walks a fragile path—one marked by secret gatherings, sacred scrolls, and unwavering courage. Ruth, a young scribe in Ephesus, has quietly dedicated her life to preserving the teachings of the apostles. But when Roman edicts threaten to silence the believers, her quiet task becomes a dangerous calling. From the distant prison island of Patmos, the apostle John entrusts a message to a Roman soldier—Gaius, hardened by battle, bound by duty, yet stirred by what he sees. Haunted by the faith of those he was taught to scorn, Gaius arrives in Ephesus carrying more than a scroll. He brings questions. Doubt. And the beginning of something he cannot yet name. As danger closes in and Rome’s reach tightens, Gaius and Ruth must navigate a world where loyalty to Christ may cost everything—and where love grows not in ease, but in endurance. Together with a hidden network of early believers, they face betrayal, flight, and the testing of everything they hold dear. Inspired by real events and rooted in Scripture, this powerful Christian historical novel brings the first-century church to life—through the eyes of a soldier, a scribe, and a community that risked all to preserve the truth. Living Faith – Hunted by Rome is a compelling continuation of the multi-generational saga that began with Living Faith – The Destruction of Jerusalem . Discover the story of how light endured when truth was outlawed—and how ordinary lives became part of an eternal testimony.
