Mountaintop
by Bob Hughes


Synopsis
Two women introduce us to old man Abraham and his fun-loving son Isaac.
The loose, humorous banter between the two reminds us that they are real people, and underscores the tragic dimension of the act Abraham must commit.
On a lonely mountaintop, the brokenhearted father lays his disbelieving son on the altar.
A dream sequence interrupts the fatal stroke of the knife and Isaac envisions a man with scarred hands taking his place on the altar saying, "You see, you and your dad were the dress rehearsal.
My father and I .
.
we had to go through with it."
An inspiring drama laced with wit and love.
A Baker best seller.
