Description

What is a loving God to do if you will not turn to him? Would someone you love have to die? Would a gun have to be put to your head? How far would God have to go to get your attention? Tom spends much of his time at school harassing his classmate Jennifer about her strong faith in God. Eventually, she can't brush off his comments any longer, but instead of retaliating with cruelty, she dares Tom to read her Bible. That stormy afternoon, Tom is caught walking home in the rain. In anger, he dares God to prove He exists, only to remain drowning in doubts when he doesn't receive an immediate answer. But it's only a matter of time before Tom sees the Truth. Follow Tom as God opens up to him in a dream revealing the horrors of sin and consequences of refusing Jesus. Awake, Tom is faced with Milard, his mother's new boyfriend, and advocate of Satan. Will Tom turn to God and trust in Him before it's too late?
