Pastor Paul delivers a sermon that shakes the foundation of his church, pitting neighbor against neighbor. As he tries to hold his congregation, his faith, and his marriage together, he discovers how insurmountable the divides between us can be. Performed in churches in and around Missoula, this immersive play asks what do you believe and why do you believe it? And what happens when those foundational beliefs are called into question? 

This production is made possible with the support of The Roy Cockrum Foundation.
