God, Have You Ever Been To Wigan?

Do you believe in God? Have you ever wondered why God has never shown Himself in your town? Grace Green has. In fact, she thought about nothing else for longer than any teenager should. Every night, she asked the same question: "God, have you ever been to Wigan?" God has been asked a lot of questions - but never such an unusual one. To Grace's dismay, her question was not answered. So, she did what any teenage girl from Wigan would do - she organised a demonstration asking for God to prove he exists. Her idea captured the imagination of other young people across the world and inspired a generation to hold their own protests. From the West Bank to India, Grace Green found herself a figure of inspiration. But as support for her protests grow, a mysterious, wise old man looks down on these events with increasing unhappiness. This man, a keeper of life, contemplates the world which he has created as he sees these young people criticise religion and their own lives. God, have you ever been to Wigan? is a short story examining the themes of God, religion and faith within society.
