Set in a chaotic New York advertising agency populated by gnomes and ruled by unscrupulous characters, the story follows an idealistic young art director from Iowa. Faced with condescension from his peers, he challenges the status quo when a major account ignites fierce competition among teams. Ignoring conventions, he takes bold risks to realize his vision, showcasing the absurdities and dynamics of the advertising world. Written by a former creative director, it offers a humorous and insightful glimpse into the industry.

Authentic discipleship is explored through the tension of being in the world while remaining distinct from it. The early Christians grappled with the duality of God's love for the world and the caution against worldly friendship, highlighting a profound ambivalence. This journey of discipleship requires understanding and navigating the complexities of love and rejection toward the world, encouraging a deeper reflection on faith in contemporary life.
