Fate brought them together... 

Will destiny tear them apart?

 

The year is 1972. Joshua, a shy, lonesome 16-year-old lives a humble existence in the South Bronx with his mother and sisters. Between the drugs, the crime, and the poverty, the one constant that typifies his routine is the act of survival. When he’s not battling low self-esteem, he often spends his days longing for the companionship of a girlfriend. Then one fateful day he meets Sarah; a sweet and innocent 16-year-old looking to, among other things, break free from the control of her domineering father. Their attraction is immediate and quickly blossoms into each other’s first love. Their lives are almost perfect until, unbeknownst to Joshua, something horrible happens to Sarah. Her personality suddenly changes overnight, confounding Joshua as to why. Believing that it wasn’t just coincidence that allowed their paths to cross, he continues to confess his love to her and a desire to spend their lives together; even as Sarah’s life slowly begins to unravel.

 

Spanning over three decades, The Joshua Tree is a gritty three-part urban saga about a family in crisis and the redemptive work of God. From the first chapter on, The Joshua Tree will reel you in with its honest portrayals, and won’t let go until its climactic conclusion.
