The triuphant story of St. Luke--Healer, man of science, rebel against God.

Set against a rich and sweeping tapestry of ancient days, alive with human passions and spiritual spendor; here is the magnificent story of St. Luke--the healer, the man of science, who sought, rejected and rebelled against God; who tasted the decadent pleasures and passions, the pain and abject poverty of life; and who found, at last, a sublime and sustaining salvation.

This is a wonderful and very probable story of St. Luke, the Apostle. Starting from his childhood to adulthood and his quest for the Messiah after having rxperienced doubts and cynicism and suffering of his loved ones.Eventually he realizes God is working through him to heal others.
Truly authentic in every way.
