What happened on the Road to Emmaus in Luke 24?
For group or personal study, this 90-page book takes the reader with the two disciples on the seven-mile trek between Jerusalem to Emmaus on that first Easter Sunday. A "stranger" joins them--and one of the Bible's most fascinating conversations starts.
Scott Wallace, editor of the local paper in Pierce's Crossing, Georgia, has his hands full making sure the community paper is published two times per week and sharing custody of his special needs son. But sometimes the news is more than just words on the page, and he finds himself gathering evidence and helping the local sheriff's department with crimes in Keowah County. When the wedding of the year involves a dead stranger, when a promising young woman is found dead on her parents' property on the Fourth of July, and when a 60-year-old hate crime cries out to be resolved, Scott becomes involved.
