This is a wonderful and very probable story of St. Luke, the Apostle. Starting from his childhood to adulthood and his quest for the Messiah after having rxperienced doubts and cynicism and suffering of his loved ones.Eventually he realizes God is working through him to heal others.
Truly authentic in every way.
