Rebellion and martyrdom collide as Simon discovers freedom’s true cost.
Simon ben Joseph longed to see his dagger bathed in Roman blood. But with his father’s unexpected death and the responsibility of caring for his many siblings, his dreams of joining the rebellion against Rome were replaced by relentless days of hard labor.
When his older brother Jesus began preaching radical ideas, Simon’s hopes for overthrowing Rome and establishing a true nation of Israel were reignited. He envisioned following Jesus as a warrior-king, like their ancient ancestors. Instead, Jesus chose a path of martyrdom.
Frustrated by his brother’s sacrifice, Simon joined the Zealots, determined to fight for the freedom of his people. Yet, as he becomes deeply involved in the zealous struggle for liberation, Simon faces the grim reality that achieving peace might require a price he’s not prepared to pay.
Wrestle with pain, heartache, and the transformation of freedom in Simon, Book 6 of the Servant Siblings series.
