The Vineyard Fray Ben Kniskern

Publisher Marketing: A man planted a vineyard. He put a wall around it and dug a hole for a winepress and built a tower. Then He leased the land to some farmers and left for a trip. When it was time for the grapes to be picked, He sent a servant to the farmers to get His share of the grapes. But the farmers grabbed the servant and beat him and sent him away empty-handed. Then the man sent another servant. They hit him on the head and showed no respect for him. So the man sent another servant, whom they killed. The man sent many other servants; the farmers beat some of them and killed others. The man had one person left to send, His Son whom He loved. Mark 12:1-6 During ancient times, in a land known as the Vineyard, life seems to go on unaffected by the inhabitants' rebellion against the One who gave them their life and land. Unaffected, that is, until one day the Owner of the Vineyard decides He's had enough. In the midst of chaos and war, several individuals who are loyal to the Owner must band together in order to save their kingdom. Follow this unlikely group of heroes as they encounter mysterious messengers, battle against ruthless enemies and endeavor to turn the hearts of the people back to the One who created them.
