Teenage John the Apostle take the Spotlight in Historical Christian Fiction Novel
Evangelist Rolin Bruno’s “John!” is a story fit for young readers especially this Christmas season
Like any teen, John and his friends would get in trouble at times. After a particularly unwise stunt, he and his best friend Andrew ended up at the Jordan, listening to John the Baptist. They met with this Jesus character that the Baptist kept going on about and got invited to a wedding. John wasn’t even 14 years old yet. But his life was changed, and he’d never be the same again. You know the rest,” says Bruno.
Rolin Bruno’s faith and creativity was showcased in the fiction series “John and the Jesus Boat” which provide readers a fresh and insightful look into the lives of Jesus and his young followers through the story of “the disciple Jesus loved,” John.
Bruno’s creation that is intended for teens and readers interested in Bible characters with the hope to encourage them to crack open a Bible and read more focus on the topic that most Christian writers pay less attention to, the aspect of John as a living breathing human being, in this case, a not so ordinary teenager.
Prestigious book reviewer Kirkus Reviews said that the author’s clever and ambitious reboot of the Gospel succeeds in humanizing the historical Bible figures and skillful use of modern slang flows naturally making it easily relatable to young readers.
The first book of the series “John!: Episode One, AD 27—On the Road” published by Stonewall Press is now available in online bookstores worldwide. The second book, Episode Two, AD 28 is set to be released later in this year while the third installation will be available by the first quarter of next year.
