Quant à Mischa, sa petite sœur.

As many Christians have been erroneously taught that wealth is something evil and not meant for the children of God, we align with biblical scripture that we were born to rule, reign, and prosper. We believe that abundance is the ONLY way to be sustainably generous, so we, the Body of Christ, can be the catalyst to help heal our hurting and dying world. We believe that God has opened the business platform as the extension of the Church for a great harvest in the last days, increasing the Kingdom of God, day by day.

Nineteen tales of human connection and disconnection that collide and subvert the half-crazed romantic contemporary, the not-so-distant rosy past, our dodgy-looking promised cyberpunk utopia, and our post-apocalyptic dystopian future. Provocative, wistful, melancholic, nightmarish, darkly funny, and satirical, these episodes must surely play out logically. Or not.
