The New York Testament

The New York Testament: A Story of God in Today's World is an attempt to project a childlike faith onto the backdrop of a faithless world. Times may change but faith is eternal. We have learned to push back at the foundations of our being but we seem to find that we leave some of the best of ourselves behind in the wake.

Giovanni Ferro attempts to capture the agony of a faithless world and juxtapose it with the beauty of grace and spirit that could sustain us. His methods are the fictional use of characters mixed with religious mainstays. His lifelong love of faith is mixed with the reality of a world that believes it has moved on from faith.

It is time for a different messiah, never before has the time been ripe for new thoughts on old religion; a break from and a cleaving to the faiths of old. Would Jesus be welcomed today; would he even be recognized as a transformational and authoritative figure for our era, or would he be rejected and relegated to bygone times? Race, religion, and intelligent dissent are the opposing forces in this book. Take a ride through the streets of New York and watch the story unfold.
