Ashes and Oil: The Council of Fire is a poetic historical novel chronicling the fire-forged legacy of the early Christian Church during the age of councils, creeds, and persecution. Set around the First Council of Nicaea (325 AD), this deeply immersive book brings to life the suffering, endurance, and unshakable faith of those who guarded the truth when the world tried to redefine it. Told in lyrical, scene-by-scene fragments across sacred places—underground chapels, Roman prisons, burning scrolls, and whispered vigils—this novel invites the reader to walk with saints, scribes, bishops, orphans, and widows who bled to preserve the Apostolic faith. It is not only a tribute to the Nicene Creed, but a powerful warning to a modern Church that forgets why heresy once had names, and why saints once had scars. This work is for lovers of theological fiction, Christian historical novels, devotional poetry, and those who long to reconnect with the ancient roots of orthodoxy. Readers of Silence by Shusaku Endo or Gilead by Marilynne Robinson will find familiar reverence in its tone. With over 70 deeply reflective scenes, it spans generations—from the dust of Nicaea to digital scrolls of the future Church—showing that though the flames have dimmed, the oil still burns. Whether you are a pastor, Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, or seeker, this book will stir your soul. Perfect for fans of church history, Christian fiction, biblical drama, and stories of persecution and creed.
