It is America's Sunday-the day that millions gather to watch the Superbowl. From militant Pittsburg fan Joe to football pacifist Esther and pom-pom baring airhead Janelle Sterns floating somewhere in between, track two characters as they make their way through this special day responding unknowingly to the invitation to the game.David B. Sable's profound story hones characters into a "sharply descriptive allegory to depict our post-Church culture. His archetypical way of creating characters is very effective in presenting a profound picture of who we are as modern American Christians. . . from Joe to Rev Jackson to Janelle and Daniel and all of them, I love every one, and I do see a part of myself in every one of them.""And the sports announcers—you've must have spent hours listening to them in preparation for this. You nailed their lingo! And their don't-stop-analyzing-schmooze-talk. So evocative and colorful, yet repetitive and cliche at the same time.""Execute!" Ha!
