About this listen

As a reward for dancing at his banquet, Herod offers Salome a wish…but what does she really want?

The Roman occupation is brutal. The governor’s grip on the region is fragile. The authorities throw banquets in palaces while fishermen go hungry. Speaking out is dangerous. Two men, John the Baptist and Jesus of Nazareth, dare to, and pay with their lives. Is their talk of a new Kingdom a delusion, or a promise of future liberation and justice?

The truth isn't clear, but two young people must risk everything to find out. Discover how it all began at Herod’s banquet, when a young woman’s dance changed the course of history....

Salome’s Wish tells the heartwarming coming-of-age story of the relationship between Salome, the iconic dancer, and Zeb, an ambitious young fisherman.
