In this 2000-year-old story, Jacob leaves the family farm, shunning his father’s religious and business ethics, to strike out on his own in the big city, poised to conquer the world on his terms. Surprised that his father actually obliges his request for an early inheritance, Jacob sets out for fortune and fame, and proceeds to spend millions of dollars living the high life.
Sadly, it all comes crashing down and he learns some vital life lessons, coming back a humbled, appreciative son, finally ready to reconcile with both his earthly and Heavenly Father.
