Journey into faith

Andrew was a son of a powerful sub-king. His father wanted twelve sons, each to be named after one of the twelve holy men he had learned about from an itinerant preacher. When tragedy struck and the king's wife died giving birth to a sixth brother, all talk of faith died with her. The king's eyes turned solely to the defense of his lands. The teachings which were tied to a God whom he thought had failed him, were not to be part of the picture.
