Thecla's story is one of many in the Apocryphal Acts which portray women giving up riches and sexual activity to follow the Apostles. Thecla was an aristocratic woman who, despite great opposition, upon hearing the preaching of Paul, renounces her family and her fianc? to follow him. She eventually becomes a missionary and lives out her life teaching the gospel and performing signs and wonders. This is a contemporary English interpretation which is easy to read and understand. It has been considerably revised and extended in this Second Edition.
