The Lost Apostle, Paperback Reprint: Searching for the Truth about Junia
In The Lost Apostle award-winning journalist Rena Pederson investigates a little known subject in early Christian history--the life and times of the female apostle Junia. Junia was an early convert and leading missionary whose story was "lost" when her name was masculinized to Junias in later centuries. The Lost Apostle unfolds like a well-written detective story, presenting Pederson's lively search for insight and information about a woman some say was the first female apostle.

Praise for this book
"This is a very readable introduction to some of the characters and stories about women from early Christianity that are known to scholars but are often forgotten rather than celebrated in the rest of the church." ("U.S. Catholic Magazine," January 2007)
