Synopsis

What is faith in a post-modern world? In a post 9/11, post Tsunami world? In a post-Christian world? Surrounded by hostility to the idea of truth, can we keep our faith intact and still have a voice? The answer is yes! Just as Daniel resisted assimilation into the ways of Babylon, Gerard Kelly shows how we can survive and even prosper in an alien culture. He looks at the kind of faith we need to make a difference, not dependent on surroundings, but on a strong, vibrant relationship with God, that survives and thrives against opposition and persecution.
