That’s where Wil Tustin has been for a couple weeks and where he was reached by email (despite the internet being “hard to find” and “spotty”) before his book-signing in Memphis on March 2nd.

Brazil, Columbia, and Peru: Those are the countries Tustin’s been visiting as a board member of the Memphis nonprofit Orphanos, which serves 20 orphanages across the globe, five of them in South America.

But we’re here to talk about Ambushed, Tustin’s new novel, which concerns the life of the Apostle Paul. It’s a story that follows Paul from childhood to persecutor of Christians to conversion to being persecuted as a Christian, and, according to the author, the story all started with the author’s own life-changing event: a life-threatening illness.
