The Turning

The message was unexpected but instantly recognizable. 

A voice resonated from a distance and somehow from within. 
Against all earthly logic, it carried a divine command.  And five very different
people knew they were summoned to obey.

Their actions were demanding, but
not particularly grand.  Only later would they see a pattern emerge - one that
links their tasks together and comes to challenge the cultural direction of the
nation.  They realize that one small personal response unveiled a new realm
of moral responsibility.  And this affirmation of everyday hope captures the
attention of millions.

But power and money are at stake.  Malicious
elements soon align themselves to counter the trend.  To succeed they must
also undermine its source.  Can we really believe that God speaks to
people today?  Surely this must be dismissed as superstition or delusion. 
These well-intentioned but misguided individuals should not be allowed to cast our
society back into the Dark Ages.

The public debate and media frenzy place
an unprecedented spotlight on knowing and doing God's will.  The five encounter
threats, but try to remain steadfast in their faith.  Had God indeed imparted
wisdom on selected individuals?  Is this sweep of events part of his divine
purpose?
