Chip Polk and the Ragtown Gospel Vocal Band
provide inspirational gospel music.

After Paul was saved on the road to Damascus, the
Bible tells us only that he “went to Arabia,” but
mysteriously names no city or destination. It was
there that Jesus himself revealed the gospel of the
New Covenant in all its fullness to Paul, making
him an apostle, charged with the mission of offering salvation through faith in Christ to the Gentiles.

This play presents the intriguing conjecture that
there was one place in Arabia God might well have
chosen…the same place where He delivered the
Old Covenant to Moses…Mount Sinai. This is the
story of two messengers of the two covenants side
by side in the same place.
