Well, I'm back in Italy! Every time I come, it feels like I've come
home! No, I still don't know the language, but I love all things Italian and I have no idea why. This was my first trip to Rome, and though we love the slower pace of the Tuscany region, I'm so glad I got to experience the city I've read and dreamed about so much.
It has been so much fun doing the video readings for The Gladiator's Day of Grace in the historical setting it was written around. I've posted one on the sidebar. To see the rest, visit my Youtube page by clicking on the link here: Jewel's Youtube Channel
I hope you enjoy them as much as I have enjoyed making them :-)
Ciao!
About The Gladiator's Day of Grace
Maximus Vitruvius Messalla has learned about the unpredictability of
life the hard way. Raised in aristocratic prominence and wealth,
one
moment Maximus is a decorated centurion in the Roman military, quickly
rising in the ranks. The next, he is betrayed, charged with treason, and
forced to be a gladiator in the Roman arena to earn his freedom.
Throughout the course of these events, Maximus comes to question all he has been taught to believe.
Lifted
by his love for a freed slave, Maximus follows her to Capernaum where
he learns of the gospel of Jesus Christ. After witnessing the healing of
a fellow centurion’s servant, Maximus’s hunger for truth grows and his
questions about the rabbi increase. He knows that if anyone can tell him
more about the Messiah, the woman he loves can. On the shore of
Galilee, she shares her testimony of the Messiah, and for Maximus, just
being in her presence gives him a glimpse of
heaven.
Over the
course of a single day, he receives answers to questions that have
haunted him for years. But when certain events come to light that reopen
old wounds, he wonders if he will ever truly have peace.
The
Gladiator’s Day of Grace is the story of love, forgiveness, redemption,
and one man’s journey to discover the saving grace that is available to
all of us.
