This riveting exploration of a buried, nearly erased, and still discounted first-century scripture reveals that the foundation of Christianity is far more radical and embracing of personal and collective change than we are often led to believe.In the middle of the first century, in Roman occupied Turkey, a seventeen-year-old girl named Thecla is sentenced to burn at the stake for refusing to marry.
