Jesus loved Deuteronomy. He quoted from it more often than from any other Old Testament book except Psalms. This is the account of Moses's last time talking to the people of Israel before his death. He pleads with them to understand the depth of God's covenant commitment and faithfulness to them. They are his "treasured possession." More than anything, Deuteronomy is about the love and grace of God for his people. Deuteronomy is as much for God's people today as it was for God's people encamped on the banks of the Jordan River over three thousand years ago. Moses speaks to us today and pleads with us to know how much God loves us and how much grace he has for us.

Despite their contrasting social origins and differing views on what form of government is best for preserving freedom and maintaining civil order, they become firm friends and when Dan is targeted by vengeful IRA assassins, he accepts Charlie’s invitation to escape to Australia where he intends settling down peacefully in Melbourne, with the love of his life who unknown to him has born him a son. When IRA gunmen pursue him from Melbourne to Perth he is forced to flee to a cattle station in the Kimberley where, finally reunited with his wife and son, he confronts his nemesis in that vast and mystical wilderness.
