Peter and Paul is an intriguing and intellectual examination and recreation of the lives of the Apostles Peter and Paul.In this book Stan I.S. Law uses historical and spiritual texts (and some contemplative imagination) to recreate the life and journeys of these two very different men. We learn who they were, the different world they lived in, what moved them, inspired them and how they took their different paths to instilling what they learned from Jesus. We meet many historical figures through this book and learn of them all in a more human and enlightening manner.The weaknesses and strengths that humankind is endowed with and what will bring out our power to invoke these attributes and frailties is a remarkable thing. To be able to explain a man’s life in a way that makes sense and creates a whole picture is a remarkable feat. Stan I.S. Law has a genuine talent for such feats.I highly recommend it!
