Synopsis:  

Jason Collins is a tough kid from a single-parent home who has found himself entangled in a life of crime and darkness. Steve Mercer is an increasingly frustrated minister at a well-respected church in town.

One night, as Steve is confronted by Jason and his friends, Jason’s words cut deep. Steve cannot forget the truths that came from this skateboarder “punk”, so he decides to make Jason and his friends his new heavenly assignment.

Unfortunately, Steve’s congregation is not as excited as he is about reaching wayward youths. Steve and Jason are on the same road, confused and unsure about their futures, as they begin a friendship that is about to bring changes they could not have possibly imagined.
