Yet living within the sacred confines of a seminary is harder than he expected; soon, he's challenged to learn new skills while navigating both minor jealousies and global politics---all while making friends and maturing as a person.
But will his virtues of patience and humility help him when he is ultimately put to the test?

This stand-alone entry in the Beyond Cascadia near-future saga is a unique, intense and intimate journey through tangled human relationships, exploring how---and if---remorse and forgiveness can ever be enough to conquer the darkest heart.
