Priscilla

The Life of an Early Christian

By: Ben Witherington III

Narrated by: Susan Hanfield

Who was Priscilla?

Readers of the Bible may know her as the wife of Aquila, Paul's coworker, or someone who explained baptism to Apollos. Biblical references to Priscilla spark questions: Why is she mentioned before her husband? Does the mention of her instruction of Apollos mean that women taught in the church? What is her story?

Ben Witherington III addresses these questions and more. In this work of historical fiction, Priscilla looks back on her long life and remembers the ways she has participated in the early church. Her journey has taken her to Ephesus, Corinth, and Rome, and she's partnered with Paul and others along the way.

Priscilla's story makes the first-century world come alive and helps listeners connect the events and correspondence in different New Testament books. Witherington combines biblical scholarship and winsome storytelling to give listeners a vivid picture of an important New Testament woman.

A Unique Approach

Ben Witherington has taken a whole new direction to his theological works. using theological and historical truth, he has weaved a narrative that allows the listener/reader to gain insight into the life of the early church. Well done!

Bringing to Life the First Century

I so appreciated how the author weaves historical records of daily life in the first century Rome with biblical texts and a message that resonates through the centuries.

Enjoyable way to learn about the early Christian church

I enjoyed learning about the early Christian church in a mostly narrative style. I think it would have been easier to follow in a printed version. It is clearly well researched and written with passion.
