From the Back Cover
The year is A.D. 64
and in Rome, the church faces fierce persecution. Driven into hiding, Christians gather wherever it's safe. At secret meetings, they learn about Jesus of Nazareth. And their faith prospers thanks to courageous leaders-like Ben the Baker who, with his wife, Helena, and their "family" of young orphans, keeps the stories of Jesus alive in
The Storykeepers. The Emperor Nero is having a birthday party, but Tacticus is not in a festive mood. He faces a tough choice: worship Nero as a god and receive a promotion, or stay true to his faith and risk death! Good thing Tacticus has friends who can help. With Ben and the gang to the rescue, his worries are over
or maybe they've just begun. More Storykeepers adventure awaits your family in this exciting, laugh-packed episode. Best of all, three stories of Jesus come to life-the royal ride on the donkey, the transfiguration on the mountaintop, and the parable of the vineyard. It's the wildest birthday party you'll ever attend.
