A pepped up version of “Lift Your Name Oh High” played and then the music faded. “Welcome back to The Tim Show, on 980 WJIE, Where Jesus is Lord. We have with us on the phone with us for a few minutes Richard Shelby who is an archaeologist with the Christian Historical Society.”

Tim took a break for a second, “How are you doing today Richard?”

“I am fine,” said Richard.

“I understand that you found an important scroll? asked Tim.”

There was an enthusiastic tone in Richard voice when he said, “Yes it was a scroll from the apostle Paul. I believe it to be one of a manuscript of a sermon he preached.”

“What country did he preach this in?” as Tim looked over his question list.

“I believe it to be Damascus, Syria. He was there in the early part of his missionary journey. This happened shortly after his conversion experience on the road to Damascus,” said Richard.

“Where did you find it?” questioned Tim.

“Yes, I found it in a cave, in the hills on the western edge of Syria,” said Richard.
'What makes you think it was Paul that wrote it?" asked Tim.

Richard paused for a second, "I am not totally sure at this time, but it corresponds to what he preached in the book of Acts. I will haft to test's to determine or not if they are real"
Tim looked at the clock he knew he could ask one more question, “What kind of tests will you run?"

"One of the tests is to see how old the paper is. How long it as been there? If the writing I the same from the original manuscripts from what Paul wrote in the book of acts," said Richard.

Tim Had 30 seconds left so he wrapped the interview up, "Well that is very interesting. We hope to have you on again when you authenticate scrolls. Thanks for being on the Tim Show."

"Thank you for having me," said Tim.

"We will have more of the Tim show after the news," said as Tim signed off.

Love the premise of this - wish you'd had more words, so I could hear more details!

Some of your spelling and grammatical errors were a bit distracting. If you can, try to give your story a good proofread (or ask someone else to do it!) before submitting.

Thanks for writing!

I definitely wanted more of this!

Perhaps more indications about the content of the scroll, and what implications it has for modern Christianity--a bit of conflict of controversy would seem natural for such an astounding find.

That would certainly be exciting!

Yep, me too, definitely wanted this to continue and is very original. Suggestion...since you have obvious talent to draw in the reader, perhaps an ending with more closure would have knitted this to perfection :)

You did an outstanding job. I loved this and commenting about any errors I'm not that good so I don't, but you did a superb job and I wanted more.

I would love to hear one of Paul's sermons, it's exciting--just thinking about such a find. The grammar I did trip over a couple of times, I usually take a minute to read over my writing before submittal--usually out loud as I sometimes I skip words when reading silently. This was a fun read.

At first, I did not make the connection until I contiued to read. I loved the dialogue in this. It is wonderful. Thanks for sharing made me want to read more.
