I, Saul by Jerry B. Jenkins, Book Review *****






While reading the book I really got transformed in to the sun blazing Texas, visited the Holy Sites of Israel and got to visit Rome and see the fires burning , the tall rock walls, the dark and wet and inescapable underground prison, with dungeons that showed no mercy to the imprisoned. What made these places all over the world come to life was the point of view of main two characters in the book, who are Augie and Luke.


First I met , Dr. Augie Knox, by all accounts he appears to be a very fictional modern day professor at Arlington Theological Seminary who could be a very real man that we could meet or already possibly know in real life!. A second character in the book that we meet in the book and from who’s point of view we get to see Rome and get to know Paul (Saul) is Luke the Doctor, the Physician. 


The book touches on a lot of subjects that Augie and Luke live through and talk about as their friends and family surround them. We get to see Augie more then just a professor, he is a devoted son with a unique relationship that he has with his mom and a somewhat complicated relationship with his dad, Augie is a man of God who tries to walk the right path in word and in action, he is a well traveled man who seem to always run in to adventures both suspenseful and life changing. He truly lives by faith, and gives away money to help someone in need while not knowing how he will get that money to provide for his own needs. What I really liked is the example that faith in the end is all that we have going for us, trust in God, to know that he will provide when all the facts show that no help is in sight. He is a loving and caring man that respects and loves his fiancĂ© in every sense of the word! 


We meet Luke who is very real person that lived and walked on our very earth and is the author of the Gospel of Luke in the Bible. Luke in the I, Saul book, is shown to us from a human point of view, as being a caring person, very selfless, willing to do anything and go to any lengths for his friend Paul (Saul) who is imprisoned and shackled for his faith in to Jesus Christ and is awaiting his end, but is still very high in Spirit and with Luke’s skills in writing, Luke writes down everything that Paul asks him to. Luke and Paul enjoyed a time of laughter, humor, priceless friendship and good, simple, gourmet food of apples, cheese and nuts, and parchment paper and writing tools were the most desired possessions. For most accurate account of Paul’s life and death I recommend you read the Bible.

With that I would like to say It has been an immerse pleasure and honor to be chosen to receive a free copy of the book I, Saul from Worthy Publishing for me to review. This is a first time for me posting a book review, I am both exited and nervous. I am a mom to a one year old, so finding the time to read anything is always a challenge, but it’s a challenge that worth every minute, for it’s that little nugget of that special time that I can have to my-self through out the day beside everything else that comes my way.

Trees - by Joyce Kilmer



"Trees" (1913)

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.

A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth's sweet flowing breast;

A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;

A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;

Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.

Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.


~  Joyce Kilmer (1886-1918)
