The Story:
HIV, human trafficking, marriage, friendship, conflict, joy and pain…This second installment of “We Fall Down: The R&B Experience” takes you down the trail of Relationships and Boundaries. On the verge of crossing the threshold of marriage, a couple discovers they really don’t know each other at all. A woman falls in love for the very first time and everyone questions her choice in men, putting a strain on her relationships with the people she holds dear to her heart. Approaching a 30-year anniversary of marriage, a couple begin to suffer from old wounds of desertion and infidelity which initially sent the wife spiraling down the road of depression. A Pastor continues to service his community and close friends by spearheading a task force addressing Human Trafficking, which is one of the biggest issues eroding the underbelly of the city. Counseling is a strong suit for the Pastor, but who does he seek counsel with to address his anxiety regarding stepping out on faith to start his own church? Who will remind the young Pastor that relationships are very important and his relationship with God is the most important.
Experience the joy and pains as you take this journey of the R&B experience to discover that we are more alike than we are different. We are as sick as our secrets and God is waiting for us to share what he already knows.
