Could a healthy young man love an undesirable woman, if the woman were misshapen and filthy? Could this young man, who only a few weeks ago was a lust-driven hedonist, love the Bible supremely? Could a mutual love for the Scriptures be motivation enough alone to make a good marriage? Even if the marriage were between the man and woman described above? Can there be a genuine marriage without Eros? Without children? These and other questions are addressed in this story, mixed in a matrix of adventure and romance. Onesimus, the runaway slave of The Road to Rome accepted Jesus Christ as his personal Saviour and Lord at the feet of the Apostle Paul. The Bible tells us that Philemon, the master of Onesimus, is a convert and special friend of Paul's. Paul insists that Onesimus return to his master, and he writes a letter to Philemon pleading for the life of the errant slave to be spared. Onesimus returns to Colossae along with another disciple: a tall, handsome fifty-year-old. Together they are carrying four letters of Paul to churches in Asia. The letters must be guarded with their lives, and very nearly costs them their lives. Then they meet Lois, a humpback hag with an air of pure stench. They are amazed to learn that she is the homeless daughter of Jewish priests who were stoned to death for their faith in Jesus Christ. The woman has memorized the Old Testament. She is a devout believer is the Saviour. Both men love her, and they adopt her for safe keeping. Tychicus asks Lois to marry him. She says, "No." Onesimus asks, and she says, "Yes." The wedding of this couple will live pleasantly in your mind for a long time. The couple returns to Rome to serve the LORD with Paul. Lois is kidnaped, and your heart will be broken by the ending of this tale.
