The Damascus Way by authors Davis Bunn & Janette Oke, is the third book in the Acts of Faith Series. It does not disappoint.

This series takes part after the resurrection of Christ, in the early days and each book has kept me entertained for hours. In this book, we are introduced to Julia, who has everything that money can buy because of her merchant father. But, she discovers a secret about her family that threatens to destroy her relationship with her father and she is devastated.

We also touch base once again with Jacob, Alban and Abigail as their stories soon become entwined with Julia’s. I love that they have also added the Samaritan Woman at the well. This was a nice bit of history thrown in and it added to the story. Mix into this, a new threat to the Christian Community know as The Way - Saul of Tarsus - and you get a lot of drama. Will Jacob, Alban, Linux and Abigail escape his clutches? I’m not telling. Will Linux and Abigail finally get together? I’m not telling that either!

If you haven’t read any of the other books in this series, do yourself a favour and start at book one. While you could read this as a stand alone, I wouldn’t recommend it because the other books are so rich in history and in fleshing out the characters that you will miss out on something special.

Kudos to the authors for another thoroughly researched and engaging book.
