Friends and Heroes: Home

SYNOPSIS

The Romans are tearing down homes outside Jerusalem and using them for building material. Isaac’s daughter, Rachel, worries what will happen to her when their house is torn down, so, to calm her, Isaac tells her of the kindness Jethro the Midianite showed to Moses, a stranger.

But Isaac’s problems are bigger than the loss of his home; if it is torn down, Toadie will see the secret tunnels underneath it – tunnels which will prove Isaac is a rebel sympathizer, and which will also lead directly to other rebels. Isaac must collapse the tunnels, but he needs time for that, so Macky offers to distract the Roman demolition crew... by tricking them into thinking that they are about to be attacked by a huge army. But Macky’s scheme unravels in mid-hoax, and Isaac is almost trapped in the collapsing tunnels.

Afterwards, Macky and his friends are reminded of the narrow escape Paul and Silas made with the help of Jason.
