the tale of a resilient boy and his unwavering faith…

Fearing for his life, Joshua, a Samaritan boy, is forced to flee home. In this extraordinary adventure, Joshua endures a harsh and unexpected world as heartbreaking as it is joyful. From an aged mystic woman with a haunting vision, a wild dog that curiously stays by his side and a reclusive uncle who hides from the world, Joshua finds uncommon love in a forsaken land. One night he is suddenly awakened by an unusual band of sojourners led by a man they call Rabbi. Many say he is the Messiah. Despite their efforts to leave Joshua behind, this strong-willed boy joins them. Little does Joshua understand that he has embarked on a transformational journey that will lead him to the cross and beyond.

… the tale of a resilient boy, who, when others faltered, stood steadfastly by Jesus, showcasing the unwavering power of…unyielding belief and the enduring bond that transcends time.
