The Bible comes alive for children and the whole family! In Part 1, Leviathan, a giant warship docks in Alexandria harbor and Macky learns from Portia that the ship’s mission is to attack the rebels resisting the Romans in Galilee. Macky inspires his friend, Sollie, to come up with a plan to sink the ship. Through their experiences and retelling of their people’s stories – the adventure of David and Goliath, and the story of how God releases Peter from prison – children will learn the importance of feeling God’s protection, not being afraid, and never giving up hope. In Part 2, False Heroes, Macky and his family take a risk and give shelter to two men they think are fugitive rebels. Through their experiences and retelling of their people’s stories – Rahab and the spies, and Peter heals Aeneas and raises Tabitha – we learn the importance of caring for others and remaining hopeful. In Part 3, True Heroes, after intelligence reports of rebels entering the city by sea, Tiberius orders the famous lighthouse extinguished. Through the exploits of Macky and the gang and retelling the stories of Gideon and the Midianites and Jesus’ Birth and the Revelation to the Shepherds, we discover how important it is to make a difference and value everyone.
