Titus: a Comrade of the Cross
Florence Morse Kingsley
Although Titus’s mother is kind-hearted and lovingly cares for his crippled brother, Stephen, she is herself pitiful. Is it his father’s ruthless treatment and chosen life style, or does she have a dark, shameful past that causes her such sorrow? When a miracle worker visits Capernaum and Stephen’s legs are restored, the family’s suppressed past begins to surface as their lives intertwine with that of the Great Healer’s, those who believe He is the Messiah and those who do not. Will the past be revealed before it is too late or will Titus never know the truth?With a driving and captivating story, Kingsley “presents the life of Jesus upon earth in such a way as to give a fresh interest to the "old, old story;" to bring the Jesus of nearly nineteen centuries ago into our lives today — a real, a living Jesus, as tender, as loving, as thoughtful of his children who are upon earth now, as he was with the dwellers in Palestine.”
