The story of Cornelius’ conversion and Simon the tanner in Acts 10 is a strange but wonderful tale of the earliest Church’s evangel. Close study makes it clear how bizarre and even offensive the interactions would have been to their originators, how awful the smells were, and how many big hurdles the Christians were stepping over.

This is an updated version reworked with Daniel Jones. It’s funny and a great piece for exploring crossing cultures, taking risks, and the results of Pentecost.
