What if you could walk beside Timothy before he became Paul's faithful companion?
The Shadow of the Seal is a biblical historical novel that brings the world of the New Testament to life through the eyes of a young Timothy as he grows up in Lystra during the earliest years of the Christian church.
Raised between two worlds-a Jewish mother devoted to the God of Israel and a Greek father who does not share her faith-Timothy struggles to understand where he belongs. As the gospel first reaches Lystra, he witnesses the preaching of Paul and Barnabas, the healing of a man lame from birth, fierce persecution, and the birth of a church whose faith is tested by opposition and transformed by the power of God.
More than a retelling of familiar events, The Shadow of the Seal imagines the personal relationships, struggles, and decisions that shaped one of the New Testament's most faithful servants while remaining firmly anchored to the biblical record.
Filled with historical detail, scriptural insight, and a message of repentance, faith, and spiritual transformation, this novel invites readers to experience the Book of Acts through fresh eyes and discover how ordinary lives become part of God's extraordinary redemptive plan.
Perfect for readers of biblical fiction who desire a story that honors Scripture while bringing its people and places vividly to life.
