The Centurion's Wife (Acts of Faith Book #1) by Janette Oke Book Summary

Janette Oke has dreamed for years of retelling a story in a biblical time frame from a female protagonist's perspective, and Davis Bunn is elated to be working with her again on this sweeping saga of the dramatic events surrounding the birth of Christianity...and the very personal story of Leah, a young Jewess of mixed heritage trapped in a vortex of competing political agendas and private trauma.

Caught up in the maelstrom following the death of an obscure rabbi in the Roman backwater of first-century Palestine, Leah finds herself also engulfed in her own turmoil--facing the prospect of an arranged marriage to a Roman soldier, Alban, who seems to care for nothing but his own ambitions. Head of the garrison near Galilee, he has been assigned by Palestine's governor to ferret out the truth behind rumors of a political execution gone awry. Leah's mistress, the governor's wife, secretly commissions Leah also to discover what really has become of this man whose death--and missing body--is causing such furor.

This epic drama is threaded with the tale of an unlikely romance and framed with dangers and betrayals from unexpected sources. At its core, The Centurion's Wife unfolds the testing of loyalties--between two young people whose inner searchings they cannot express, between their irreconcilable heritages, and ultimately between their humanity and the Divine they yearn to encounter.

Believe because He lives!. I just finished it! During the time it took to read this book I found a renewed sense of knowing Christ, and felt overwhelmed by the love of the early church believers, and at times wept because of their new found love for Jesus. I feel like my eyes have been opened in a new way to how the biblical events had transpired. The story of Leah and the Centurion made it captivating as well. I would recommend this book to anyone!!

Leah. Great love story about two different people who fall in love with each other and learned about Jesus and his love for people who still believed in him after his death and when he had raised from the dead to teach all that who every believed in him will have live forever

Faith and vision Builder. I loved this book. I found it bringing parts of the New Testament to life. The characters seemed so real and I could imagine Martha and Mary as they went about their duties and related to others each in their own unique way. I could hardly wait to turn each page. I will go to the website to read more.

The Centurion’s Wife. I loved the historical setting of this book. The story capitalizes on the lives of both a man and a woman, a Jewess and. Gentile and the effect that the Prophet had on them. For one who doesn’t want to misrepresent any biblical facts, the details seemed to be very accurate with the Gospels. I have been thinking within the framework of the story ever since I began the book and appreciate the insight into biblical times and culture. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series to get a feel for the Acts.

CENTURIANS WIFE. A beautiful and inspirational story of faith and love.

Centurion's Wife. A book that beings you closer to that first Pentecost, it brings it to life yet again. It may be fiction but the sounds, the smells, the sense of loss and longing that must have been is brought to life. Really enjoyed the sense of being there, the waiting and the longing which still goes on today.

Brilliant book. Well researched, well written.
