description: After Tabitha loses her husband to the sea God gives her the unexpected gift of a son and a new faith to follow the resurrected Messiah. Tabitha thrives amongst her community of believers in the sea-side village of Joppa. There she teaches widows and a slave girl named Korinna how to sew while she makes her living as a seamstress. She loves her adopted son but when his recklessness threatens to destroy their entire community Tabithas heart breaks. Only a miracle can bring Matthias back to her and all those who care for him. A miracle perhaps from beyond the grave.
