Focusing on the resilience of faith, this book explores the journey of Japan's Hidden Christians, who preserved their beliefs in secrecy for centuries amid severe persecution. It delves into the historical context of Christianity's introduction to Japan and the subsequent ban that led to a unique underground practice. The narrative examines why descendants of these Hidden Christians continue their traditions without rejoining the Catholic Church, highlighting the cultural tensions between Western religion and Japanese identity.
