Created by Kaye Singleton, ‘Covenant’ is a 1-hour anthology series that transforms the Bible stories and characters that we know so well into a suspenseful drama–sometimes thriller–fueled by the truth of God’s Word. This truth battles against our own worldly desires and humanistic flaws of character, dropped directly into a 21st-century backdrop. Each episode is exciting, thrilling, cautionary, and unabashedly ruthless at times, as if the audience is discovering the secret to life that’s been in plain sight. There are moments of comedy, but they come from the gravity of real situations–not forced or staged. The truth shines through in the end, with no sugar-coating, no gloss.

Smith follows in Faberge’s footsteps, from the legendary Green Vaults in Dresden to the palaces of the tsars and the corridors of the Kremlin museum, as he discovers how this fin de siecle genius transformed his father’s modest business into the world’s most famous supplier of luxury items.
