Father
Father is a celebratory meditation in dance, bringing the themes of the Lord's Prayer to life. Readings from the book Heart to Heart: Meeting With God in the Lord's Prayer alternate with contemporary songs exploring each line of the prayer. This is a powerful look at the heart of Christianity.
