David Schofield writes out of his own many years of experience in bereavement care and funeral practice. His aim is to offer advice to those, of any denomination, who are called upon to minister to the bereaved and to conduct funerals. By sharing his own thoughts and observations he hopes to pass on his knowledge, open up the subject of grief, bereavement, and funerals and bring these into twenty-first century thinking.

Andrew, the younger brother of Peter, is just one day shy of his sixteenth birthday when he and Peter notice a man with a purposeful stride walking along the coastline. When the stranger asks the boys to follow him, they do, not realizing that they have changed the course of their lives forever. As the boys embark on what will become a three-year journey with Jesus, Andrew struggles to understand the earthly and divine meanings of his teachings. After Jesus recruits Joanna, the wife of Cuza, to leave her husband, children, and possessions and travel with the group, the four set out on the road toward Negev where more eventually join their spiritual pilgrimmage. As Andrew begins to awaken to his true value and relationship with his creator, he witnesses Paul's growth into his role as a teacher of God's Word and finally his death in a Roman prison. The Eye of the Needle is the fictionalized account of Andrew's journey with Jesus as he learns to embrace God's stories, truths, and blessings.
