This book takes six minor characters of the New Testament-the rich young man, the widow and her mite, the centurion Cornelius, one of the ten healed lepers, the good thief, and Peter's mother-in-law-and presents fictional stories woven into the actual Biblical narrative. Jacob's story concerns choosing between God and money. Sarah's story is about believing in Jesus' power to heal. Cornelius' story regards coming to faith even in the face of a questionable past. Miriam's story chronicles her physical and moral restoration leading to a deep personal commitment to Christ.

These stories resonate with readers, for the challenges presented are not unlike those faced by contemporary believers and unbelievers alike.
