During Passover AD 33, Yeshua of Nazareth was publicly crucified and declared dead. Yet Roman Tribune Valerio Tullus, his Jewish wife Leah, their children Simon and Anna, their household of Jews and foreigners, along with Roman Prefect Pontius Pilatus, Herodian and Jewish leaders, and all Jerusalem hear an astounding rumor: Yeshua has been resurrected from the dead. Valerio and his family had earlier embraced Yeshua’s proclamation that all shall come to Adonai’s kingdom. This appears to happen when a roaring wind like fire engulfs the city, and Yeshua’s followers announce that Yeshua has poured out His Spirit. Strangely, Valerio and his family are excluded from this outpouring. What then does this Spirit’s coming mean? Is it the coming of Adonai’s kingdom as Yeshua proclaimed? Or are some being rejected because they aren’t Jewish? Or, in His divine compassion, does Adonai still have a plan for them? For answers, Valerio and his family seek out Yeshua’s followers. What they learn will change their lives.

Annie Whitley, Alex's sister, is faced with a difficult choice when a call from Alex comes out of the blue.
