Titus: A Comrade of the cross is a book full of suspense and drama, but more importantly truth. It is about Titus, a young man living in the time of Christ. He is a part of the lowest class of society, his father is a thief, and Titus' brother, whom He is very attached to, is a cripple. Titus and his brother, Stephen, abhor the life of their father, yet Titus has no choice but to join him and the rest of the group of law breakers and thieves occasionally. He yearns for something better. One day he hears of Jesus. Titus and Stephen learn more about him, as they hear and see more of Jesus and his disciples, they have some very difficult choices to make. Along the way Titus meets Barabbas, Jesus Mother, Mary, and has some incredible experiences. This story takes you not only to the very foot of the cross, but to the three crosses themselves. The ending is very unexpected, and may seem rather sad, but it does not leave you depressed, rather, full of joy and hope! (Summary by Tiffany) (6 hr 44 min)

Reviews

beautiful gospel from a fresh view


(5 stars)

Well researched and well written, this is the story of Jesus Christ woven through a sweet fiction of people who might have met Him and been healed by Him. I found myself listening to some chapters multiple times to catch the nuances of the story.

Wonderful Historical Fiction to Build Faith


(5 stars)

A really touching story for believers or unbelievers. It takes many of the characters and incidents that appear in the New Testament and supplies names, backgrounds and personalities to them. Thanks for making it available. But do we really go to Heaven when we die???


(5 stars)

I love this story. A well read story that brings reality to the life of Jesus in a way I savor hearing. I highly recommend!!

Very enjoyable.


(5 stars)

A good and simple rendition of the gospels in a "dramatic" format. Nice to listen to while working, etc. Most of the readers did a pretty good job.

Great rendering

What a joy this book is! I have read the scripture for many years and her ability to harmoniously combine all four gosples is wonderful

Amazing Book..- hope more can hear this.

Some chapters are difficult to hear and listen to, but the text itself is quite interesting and worth a listen.

I love this book.
