Angel of the Churches

An Unearthly Discovery In Ephesus, Turkey, a terrorist bomb unearths a cave filled with first century Christian relics. Amid the vast array of scrolls and vestments hidden in the cave, Turkish security personnel discover a strange phosphorescent crystalline object. Dubbed the Ephesus Device, the object's origin and purpose remain a tantalizing mystery. On The Trail Of The Truth On the other side of the world, at a seminary campus in Minneapolis, students in a summer school class on the New Testament learn they're part of a team responsible for decoding an old and radically different Greek version of the Book of Revelation. Little do they know that in attempting to discover the truth about this strange new document, they will involve themselves in an international web of deceit, danger, and death. Or that their very survival may in fact be tied to their unraveling the meaning of the mysterious Ephesus Device itself. As timely as today headlines about religious violence, Angel of the Churches presents a penetrating look into the roll of religion in modern society. While affirming both the authenticity of spirituality and traditional Christian beliefs, the book also offers up a fresh answer to the question: when do religions really become dangerous?
