The class is sent to an Elephant Preserve in Texas to discover three things followers of Christ can learn about God from a gate. The key verse is John 10:7-9 , 'Therefore Jesus said again, 'Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.  All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.'
