After accelerating for only three hundred meters, the first engine burst into flames. Moments later, the plane overran the runway and plowed through an airport fence, crashing into home, shops, and market stalls, before erupting into a blazing inferno.

The Centurion

Meet Longinus, The Centurion, once a scared young soldier, now the trusted centurion for the Roman governor Pontius Pilate. Life in the phalanx had once seemed to offer all the answers. Now, it only created questions. How should have react to the Man he's been commanded to crucify; the Man Jesus who seems to be the only One who really offers any hope?
Dick Stenbakken brings to the pages of this insightful book the knowledge gleaned from years of study and research into first-century Roman beliefs, practices, and religious thinking. A master storyteller, Stenbakken skillfully weaves a powerful narrative of Longinue, the centurion in charge at the Crucifixion, in such a manner as to make his story - our story. Each chapter includes discussion questions, intended for indiiual or group relections. Once you begin to read, you won't want to stop.
