DISCIPLES IN THE MOONLIGHT takes place in the not-too-distant future after the government has banned the Bible for its “offensiveness” and replaced it with a government-approved version. A small group of Christians are recruited to smuggle God’s Word to underground churches throughout the Midwest. With a ruthless federal agent in hot pursuit, the believers must choose between following the law or honoring and trusting God.

    replaced it with a government-approved version

    Which is literally what the Bible is, the original text and the King James version.

      Exactly my thought re: King James. Hilarious.

      But what do you mean by the “original text” which is challenging to even determine given the relatively recent age and conditions of most manuscripts of both new and old testaments.

      And they had more than one “ruthless federal agent” back then too. They weren’t big fans of Catholics and their “non-approved” version of the Bible.
