Summary

"Saul of Tarsus: A Tale of the Early Christians" by Elizabeth Miller is a story set in the early days of Christianity, focusing on the life of Saul of Tarsus, who becomes the Apostle Paul. The book explores big ideas like belief, who we are, and the problems faced as the Christian church was just starting out. The story begins with Saul as a rabbi in Jerusalem in 36 A.D., and he's worried about the followers of Jesus, especially one named Stephen. Saul is very dedicated to the Law, and he faces tough choices as he deals with this new movement that some people think is disrespectful to God. The book shows how faith and personal connections clash, and it helps us understand Saul's complicated personality and the difficult times he lived in.
