Bridge

By Ralph Filicchia

The Bridge is an unusual novel about life in the inner city. The characters-cab drivers, dishwashers, cooks, laundry workers-illustrate a part of modern American life not usually found in Christian fiction. Although one or two incidents in the book may seem excessively violent, the overall drift of the story is about the tenderness and simplicity of one awkward young man who discovers Jesus Christ and tries in his own limited way to live for Him. His brutal murder is not the result of his failure to be a Christian, but rather a great victory for the cause he espoused. As the blood of the martyrs was the seed of the early church, so his blood becomes seed for the spread of the gospel in his immediate surroundings.
