Description
The story starts out in the big city of Atlanta, Georgia where Jacob and 3 of his best friends begin their quest in becoming a big time televangelist. After graduating seminary school, Jacob's father thinks his son will come back home and preach at his church, but Jacob has other plans. Jacob and his friends are offered lucrative paying positions at Great Community Christian Center, which is run by Bishop Raymond Cansler. Bishop Cansler has hopes of himself becoming bigger than Creflo Dollar and Bishop T. D. Jakes and is willing to do anything to get there. Jacob, James, Tory and Najee begin their positions at Greater Community and are tempted to give in to many fleshly desires. Will they give in or hold to their faith? Each one will take their own journey to the truth and it is there that their lives will change. Jacob will learn the true meaning of a Bishop and learn who his father, Jacob Senior really is. He will also learn the true meaning of Mark 8:36 "For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?"
