Witnesses: Nine Stories from the Margins of the Gospels
Some of the most fascinating people in the Gospels are the ones who speak only a few words—or none at all.
In Witnesses: Nine Stories from the Margins of the Gospels, Mike Casper imagines the lives of nine overlooked individuals whose paths intersected with Jesus and the events surrounding His ministry. Drawn from the margins of Scripture, these stories explore the humanity behind familiar biblical moments, inviting readers to consider the hopes, fears, questions, and choices of people history barely remembers.
From John the Baptizer's circle to the shores of Galilee, from a tax collector's banquet and Jacob's Well to the tombs of the Gerasenes and the mountain exile of Pontius Pilate, each story is rooted in the biblical record while thoughtfully expanding the world around it. The result is a collection of Christian historical fiction that is faithful to Scripture, rich in historical atmosphere, and deeply personal.
Rather than retelling the Gospels, Witnesses stands alongside them, offering fresh perspectives on timeless events through the eyes of ordinary people whose lives were forever changed by extraordinary encounters.
Whether read for personal enjoyment, devotional reflection, or group discussion, Witnesses includes both a Reader's Discussion Guide and a Conversation Guide to encourage meaningful conversations about faith, grace, redemption, and the enduring impact of Christ's life.
Some names are remembered. Others are almost forgotten. Their stories still matter, and they’re calling to you.

Stone Thrower
Stone Thrower: fifteen beautifully written backstories of 'little people' in the bible who had an encounter with the most important man in history. Rather than retelling familiar biblical moments, Stone Thrower steps into the quiet spaces between them, the moments history forgot, and fills them with the warmth of compassion and authenticity. Each story feels lived-in and real, as if these "ordinary souls" had simply been waiting for someone to remember them. Stone Thrower gives voice to the overlooked and, in doing so, reminds readers that the story of faith is also the story of humanity.
Readers say Stone Thrower is a gripping and well-crafted piece of historical fiction, reminiscent of the style seen in the hit show The Chosen. It brings the time of Christ to life in an exciting, fresh way.

The Sing Song Child:
…a love story
Five hundred years ago, in the shadowed heart of medieval Europe, being disabled was not a condition—it was a curse.
Young Andrew’s legs cannot bear his weight, and his halting words often draw cruel laughter. Yet his spirit sings—softly but surely—of a faith the world cannot silence.
As darkness closes in, Andrew, the sing-song child, may yet become a living testimony to God’s quiet miracles… and prove that strength is born not in the body, but in the soul.
