About this listen
Some stories begin with fire. Others begin with silence. This one begins with dust—settled thick on the cover of a forgotten Bible, waiting for the right pair of trembling hands to brush it off.
Sixteen-year-old runaway Sam Carter has nothing left—no family, no home, no reason to keep walking. But when he stumbles upon an old brown leather Bible in a rusted-out trailer, everything changes. Drawn to a single verse marked decades earlier, Sam begins an unexpected journey across the backroads of Texas, carrying more scars than hope and a whisper in his heart that says, I am the Way.
From abandoned churches to chance encounters with strangers, Sam’s road is one of hard lessons, fragile faith, and second chances. Along the way, he meets Luke, a boy with wounds that mirror his own, and together they discover that redemption isn’t found in running away—it’s found in walking toward something greater.
Told with raw honesty and a quiet power, Before the Dusty Bible is a heartfelt story of survival, forgiveness, and the unexpected ways God reaches into broken lives. It’s about the weight of the past, the promise of the future, and the hope that rises when the dust is finally brushed away.
