What Readers Are Saying:
"The book lets you dive into the setting of old Jerusalem, the time just after Jesus' resurrection. The story is told empathically but with an interesting way of weaving in characters you know from the Bible. I felt it was very entertaining and reminded me of the series The Chosen in the way it is written. Great read!"
—Esther, GoodReads
"Lovely fiction about a sister of Jesus and the early days after his resurrection. It humanizes the early followers and their journey of becoming a unified group of believers. Assia’s story shows us the Pentecost and also the various relationships in the family. Good character development, conflict resolution and a bit of romance. Highly recommend reading this!"

"The book was written wonderfully, with Jesus ascending into Heaven and the people receiving the fire of the Holy Ghost landing on them! Peter said what he was quoted as saying in Acts in the Bible, this book used the Bible wonderfully! Every page of this book was a delight to read, thank you Jenifer!"
