A single letter arrives in Rome, igniting a fire of hope and fear among the city’s secret house churches. The Apostle Paul, the controversial and tireless champion of the gospel, has announced his intention to visit them. But before he can reach the heart of the Empire, he must first journey into the heart of a political and prophetic firestorm: Jerusalem. What begins as a mission to deliver a charitable collection to the saints quickly spirals into a fight for his very life.

The Epistle to the Romans plunges readers into one of the most pivotal moments in church history. Witness the meticulous creation of the faith’s most profound doctrinal fortress as Paul dictates his masterpiece to the scribe Tertius in Corinth. Journey with the faithful deaconess Phoebe on her perilous mission to deliver the precious scroll across the sea to the Roman believers. Then, follow Paul into Jerusalem, where a plan for peace backfires spectacularly, leading to a violent riot in the Temple , a dramatic rescue by the Roman cohort , a brilliant speech that silences a mob , and a sham trial before a Sanhedrin torn apart by his testimony.

From the cold stone cells of the Antonia Fortress —where the Lord Himself promises Paul he will bear witness in Rome —to the corrupt courts of governors Felix and Festus, Paul’s journey is a labyrinth of political maneuvering, miraculous deliverance, and unwavering faith. When an assassination plot by forty zealots is revealed , Paul is forced to make a decision that will change the course of his life and the history of the church: an appeal to Caesar. This is the story of how the gospel’s greatest champion became Caesar’s prisoner, and how the letter that would define Christianity was sealed by the chains of its author.
