E3 - This is a Battle, This is the Battlefield

How can a poor Rasta community, based in the most rural and mountainous parish of Jamaica, ever dream to build a "Kingdom"? Weaving together intense action and spiritual insight into the will of the human mind, Alan recounts the humble beginnings of the Ethiopian Zion Coptic Church's mighty operation.

Filled with ingenious solutions and strikingly frank honesty, Episode 3 explores the bold growth of the Church. Concluding with a profile of the warm and wise figure that was Brother Niah Keith, we aim to show how he inspired people with the actualisations of his teachings.
