“This series explores how the realm of faith touches upon everything we do.” notes Randall. “All of us live surrounded by different cultures, yet many of us don’t understand or appreciate the beauty that exists right next door. From the places we travel to the food we eat, from the music we hear to the movies we watch – all of these inform our different perspectives.”
