Every Knee Shall Bow (Constantine's Empire #2) - Bryan Litfin
The year is AD 316. Though the days of imperial persecution are over, the future of Christianity remains uncertain. Will churches rise where pagan temples once dominated? Will the true Scriptures replace the ancient myths of the gods? Will Jupiter finally bow to the Lord Jesus?
For the first time, a Roman emperor supports the Christian church. Bishop Sylvester tasks Flavia, a young woman from her convent, with a mission to secure Emperor Constantine’s approval to build great churches and establish the canon of Scripture. But forces opposing God’s will are gathering strength. Alongside her protector Rex, who has fought his way out of exile, Flavia embarks on a perilous journey across the empire. Together, they navigate treacherous lands and seas in a quest to liberate the Roman people from the grip of their ancient gods.
Rich with tension and bolstered by meticulous historical research, this gripping tale of bravery, faith, and submission to God continues the riveting saga of two unlikely heroes in the era of imperial Christianity.
