SOMETIMES, BELIEVING IS THE GREATEST ADVENTURE OF ALL!

"I'll tell you, Tobias, it's true; every word of it-it's all true!" And so, the adventure begins for Thaddeus of Edessa-a restless young man with aspirations more far-reaching than the confines of his traditions. His assignment is to go to Jerusalem to witness firsthand the ceremonies that give meaning to those traditions. His true quest is to find the long-awaited Messiah and return with the news of His arrival.

There is a long-recognized principle that beginnings shape endings. And the first century is one of the most important beginnings in human history. To understand today, we must understand the beginning; much like a story or a life, the opening chapters set the themes that echo through time.

A First-Century Journey: The Ears of the Deaf Shall Hear tells the story of Thaddeus and others who interacted with important figures from New Testament times. Come join the adventure and discover how lives and history were changed when the ears of the deaf were opened, and hearing led to believing.
