Driven by their unwavering dedication to their Christian faith, Robert and Dorothy embark on a life-altering mission to spread the Gospel across the globe.

As the Arthurs immerse themselves in the local culture, they encounter a clandestine network of Chinese Christians who have devoted their lives to practicing their faith in secrecy.
