What if the earliest followers of Jesus left behind more than one story? For centuries, Christian faith has been shaped by a carefully chosen canon. Yet beyond those familiar pages exists a wider, stranger, and often more intimate collection of texts, writings that speak not only about belief, but about awakening, transformation, and the divine spark within. The Gnostic Gospels brings together the most influential non-canonical Christian writings, including the Gospels of Thomas, Mary, Philip, Judas, Truth, Peter, and others-presented with historical context, scholarly transparency, and clear modern-language renderings. Each gospel is introduced with a guiding framework:
History, Mystery, Heresy, and Discovery

Leave with wonder.
