With nothing better to do, Jesse accepts a request to go to Ireland to help a relative find his missing daughter.

Sex. In a world overwhelmingly obsessed with it, why is the church so silent about it?

While many denominations claim to be growing, the largest group in American religious life is the disillusioned - people who have been involved in the church yet see few similarities between the church's life and the person of Jesus. In the midst of elaborate programming, professional worship teams, and political crusades, they ask, "Is this really what Jesus called us to do?"

Their commitment to authentic spirituality over institutional idolatry might be the very corrective the church needs.
