This story begins in a future beyond the apocalypse, in the year 2082 AD/CE by our calendar, Mill 40 in what will be the Millennial calendar. A married couple, Jonathan and Sarah, live a simple though challenging life in a world that has been through unutterable torment and yet is healing faster than anyone could have foreseen. They face a reality no one has experienced on earth before or during the apocalyptic events which ravaged the planet. Coexisting with them are human beings who live well beyond the normal four score years and ten and whose health never seems threatened--""they live on, young of heart and soul, immortal flesh and bone, while our generations pass mortal to the grave."" Seeking answers to their many spiritual and practical questions, they are helped by one of the immortals, who tells them the story of his life, particularly during the apocalyptic events which led to their present situation on earth. Their faith deepens and an incredible vision for their future opens up.
