The enduring appeal of Camelot is the Gospel message told within a Medieval tale: stories where agape love take form with a faithful company persevering to victory led by the King Who Came.

The King Arthur Legendarium presents this timeless tale with new scholarship and new tales woven by modern creative members of the fellowship of beauty.
