Description:
A hilarious action-adventure series for Christian kids set in a town where the parables of Jesus literally come to life.
Anthony and his friends have barely caught their breath after escaping wild vines and dive-bombing birds when Parable Port is hit with the storm of the century. The rain won't stop. The waters are rising. And something about it feels... biblical.
Turns out, the Parable of the Wise and Foolish Builders has gone haywire--and the whole town is in danger of being washed away. Teaming up with Grace and Duck, Anthony sets out to track down the mysterious lighthouse keeper, Captain David, who just might hold the key to saving Parable Port.
Meanwhile, budding podcaster J.R. is starstruck by a quirky new celebrity journalist in town. But when chasing a big story starts costing her real friendships, J.R. must decide what matters more: likes and listeners, or truth and loyalty.
As electric eels zap through flooded streets and homes crumble like sandcastles, the gang must decode clues, face tough choices, and learn what it really means to build your life on a solid foundation.
Can they reach Captain David before the storm destroys everything--or will Parable Port be lost beneath the waves?
