When Conrad Davis crashes his car, he should be dead. Instead, he finds himself in a parallel universe with a single difference from ours - Jesus Christ did not come 2000 years ago! Conrad finds himself in the midst of events surrounding a man named Eli - events that carry strong contemporary echoes of the life of Jesus. Following Eli, Conrad is challenged to accept what he witnesses, just as Christ’s apostles must have been challenged. Eli gives a unique twist to a question many people have asked themselves over the past two millennia: How would I react if I lived in the time of Jesus?

And yet, somehow, amidst the drama, comedy and surprising turn of events, he stumbles into the maturity God has always hoped for him.

John Walker—recently divorced and living in a motorhome near the beach in Florida—seems to be on a lucky streak. No matter what he does, he comes out a winner. He's won the lottery, found a pot of gold, and met the perfect woman. But good luck often comes with complications. His perfect woman "needs her space" and suggests that he takes a vacation—without her. So he packs up his motorhome, aka "The Love Bus", and heads off to Florida's Treasure Coast in search of long-lost gold from the Spanish Fleet wreck of 1715. 

Walker has just lost his job, his wife has filed for divorce, and he’s living in a tent down by the river. Being ever-resourceful, Walker swaps his truck for a motorhome (a.k.a. "the Love Bus"), and agrees to drive it cross-country to sleepy Englewood, Florida, so he can deliver a cat named Mango Bob to a woman he's never met. Should be easy, right? Drive to Florida, hand over the cat, and then hang out on the beach. Except there’s an unsolved murder involving the Love Bus, the Mexican mafia, and a half million in missing gold coins. 

As our hero continues his off-the-record visits with Jesus Christ, his best friend draws him onto the wrong side of a moral and political issue.

Despite it all, amidst victories and catastrophic failures, he learns his identity, now and forever, is as God's “deeply loved son.” Join Will Thomas as, with a touch of humor, he continues stumbling his way toward holiness and understanding God's deep desire for intimate friendship.
