Persuaded: The Story of Nicodemus, a novel
by David HarderPublish: Jun 09, 2020Historical FictionChristian Fiction
Book Overview
Escaped narrowly after the fall of Jerusalem . . .
Pursued relentlessly by the Sanhedrin . . .
Entrusted covertly with a mission more significant than he had imagined . . .
From the prison colony on Patmos, the Apostle John entrusts Nicodemus with manuscripts for the Christian fellowships increasing throughout the Roman Empire. While transcribing the manuscript, Nicodemus is prompted to recall his former life and his encounter with Yeshua - a man of mystery, a healer, a teacher, and a prophet. An encounter that changed everything.
Under the cover of darkness, risking his reputation and endangering his life even further, it is here that Nicodemus realizes the world changing power of the Good News . . . and what being a follower of
Yeshua truly means.
This book was written over a two year period and I felt relieved when it was finally finished. I shared the story with a dear friend who screens my books for weaknesses or missing elements. She said I needed to re-write the first 1/3 of the book and to have a fresh opening. I was initially devastated, but when I followed her advice, the story exploded with amazing energy. The transition from the opening, to a reflected look back in time, as retold by the main character, then returning to the time frame of the book's opening, created a fresh perspective to the manuscript. My editor remarked that the book felt like a move playing inside her head and she loved it.

With an unique perspective on the life of Nicodemus, I believe David Harder did an excellent job with this novel. It was easy to immerse myself into the Biblical timeline and feel as though I was walking alongside them.
