Gnostic Mystery - Randy Davila

Jack Stanton, an American businessman, makes a pilgrimage to war-torn Israel in hopes of rekindling his Christian faith. While travelling with his friend Punjeeh, an ER doctor from Jerusalem, Jack acquires an ancient scroll written by the Gnostics, a mystical group of early Christians-and his spiritual quest takes an unexpected turn. With the help of the brilliant Chloe Eisenberg, a professor of philosophy and religion, Jack and Punjeeh navigate the dangerous terrain of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in an attempt to decipher the puzzle of the scroll and bring the Gnostics' revelations about Jesus to light.Set against the backdrop of today's Middle East, THE GNOSTIC MYSTERY is at once a compelling adventure and a captivating introduction to the recently discovered origins of Christianity, which are far different from what we believed . . . until now.
