BOOK 3 OF THE INFINITE TAPESTRY SERIES
Fire fell on a locked room in Jerusalem - and it never went out.
For centuries the angel Hadraniel has kept a ledger. He has recorded a wilderness testing, a wedding's saved-up wine, a cross, an empty tomb. Now he watches something stranger than anything that came before: a hundred and twenty frightened people, waiting behind a bolted door, becoming a Church that no empire, exile, or executioner will ever manage to extinguish.
From an upper room shaking with wind and fire, through Stephen's stoning and Saul's blinding on the road to Damascus, through slave girls and philosophers, prison cells and shipwrecks, to Nero's Rome and a lonely island called Patmos - Hadraniel keeps watch as ordinary people carry an extraordinary fire across centuries he never expected to still be counting. Perpetua, facing the arena. Augustine, wrestling his own soul. Tyndale, hunted for translating a book into English. Francis, stripping bare in a public square. A woman named Julian, shown love in the middle of plague and grief. A scholar named Lewis. A church in Nazi Germany that refuses to bow. A revival breaking out on a Los Angeles side street.
Through it all, one Thread keeps running - from a canyon in Judea to a throne no ledger could ever fully describe - toward a final vision of a woman clothed with the sun, a dragon cast down, and a city coming down out of Heaven where there is no more sea, no more curse, and no more night.
The Spirit and the bride still say: Come.
Whoever you are. Whatever doubt you are still carrying.
He is already singing your part of the song.
