Letters to Luke – the award-winning novel by physician Joe Holoubek -- brings the gospels to life through the story of two young Jews trained in the healing arts.
Joseph and Elisa encounter Jesus in Capernaum, become friends and followers, discover greater meaning in their lives and greater respect for each other’s gifts. They bear witness to His redemptive sufferings on the cross, then return to Capernaum to carry on His work. There, as members of an early Christian house-church, they become targets for persecution by Saul of Tarsus.
This epic re-telling of the Gospel of Luke places readers with Jesus right on the streets of Galilee. Letters to Luke offers an unforgettable medical and spiritual perspective on the ministry and death of Jesus.
