Travel with Samuel on his Journey to Jerusalem to help rebuild the wall around the city. The world is full of danger, anger, mystery, love, hate, design, confusion, sacrifice, and grace. Samuel experiences all of these things on his long and treacherous journey. He learns lessons of love, trust, patience, and hope. Why do bad things happen to good people? Why does anything ever happen to anyone? Join the experience with Samuel as he explores these thought provoking questions we deserve to know the answer to... Or do we deserve anything at all?
