Millennia

The separation of church and state has never been as challenged as when a future U.S. president sets in motion the ultimate technological sending a human back in time to the age of Jesus. A detailed and credible look at how this might be done is coupled with a poignant love story that transcends the ages and rings true with the events and characters that formed the beginnings of the Christian church in Roman Palestine and beyond. Love, betrayal, secrecy, espionage, politics, and survival meld into a highly entertaining story that comes full circle over two millennia. The experience of a modern time traveler thrust into an ancient culture is not without its humor and human insight as our heroine adjusts and eventually thrives under oppression and racial hatred as she travels and lives in various parts of the Roman Empire. She meets and becomes the friend and confidant of many of the most important characters in biblical history, and ultimately becomes one of them herself. Her legacy for the future is considered dangerous by some, and the novel’s resolution explores the limits of our human ability to see and understand the face of God.
