The Third Testament is a pro-Christian novel about a troubled college history professor who sets out to write the next testament of the Bible. Historically accurate, it contains inspirational quotations from the most prominent saints, highlights the origins of Christian traditions, and recounts in biblical fashion the miraculous events of the last two millennia.
