Lost Ark Found

by Rob Sargeant

Lost Ark Found is a modern-day parable: the tale of a grandfather and five teenagers who obtain the archeological find of the century. While they seek and find physical treasures in the mountains of Vancouver Island, their lives are affected much more powerfully by the truths they encounter there. Using a three-hundred-year-old handwritten journal as their guide (and with a little help from a mountain-man hermit) the explorers overcome obstacles, solve riddles, and conquer their own fears to finally arrive at a mountain-top aboriginal temple. Inside, behind an ancient door, they find the Ark of the Covenant. But there is a problem. Only those who have clean hands and a pure heart can approach the inner alcove behind the veil. One teenager among them proves to be the chosen one, with a pure heart, who is predestined to enter the holy of holies.
