Who was the man who succeeded Saint Peter? What happened to the Church in the perilous years after the apostles began to vanish from the earth?
In this groundbreaking narrative biography, "After Peter" uncovers the lost legacy of Pope Linus, the second Bishop of Rome and one of the most overlooked figures in Christian history. While Peter and Paul dominate the spotlight, Linus stepped into the void at a time of persecution, silence, and spiritual uncertainty. His leadership preserved the unity of the early Church, safeguarded apostolic teaching, and quietly laid the groundwork for what would become the papacy.
Drawing from ancient sources, Church tradition, and historical analysis, this compelling work brings to life the man known only from a brief mention in the New Testament and scattered lines in early Church writings. You'll journey through first-century Rome, encounter a Church hiding in catacombs, and witness the silent courage of a shepherd whose faith helped stabilize the most vulnerable generation of Christians.
Perfect for readers of early Church history, Christian biography, Catholic tradition, and papal studies, "After Peter" is a powerful restoration of memory-and a testament to the quiet saints who hold the Church together when no one is watching.
