Description
It is 1980 and Jack Hodges is a senior in a Georgia high school when he and his friend, Ricky, witness one of the greatest upsets in sports history. He leaves the Olympic hockey game in Lake Placid, New York, with the souvenir of a lifetime: a hockey stick thrown into the stands by a US player. Jack never notices the scripture written on the back of the stick. As the souvenir follows Jack to an elite college, law school, and into a successful career as an attorney, he realizes the professional life he has always wanted, but at what cost? Jack's wife is unhappy in their marriage, he is mostly an absent father, and he has been treating his parents and siblings as outsiders. After tragedy strikes, Jack finally realizes the significance of the scripture penned on the hockey stick. What follows is an inspiring transformation resulting in a family saved, a soul committed to Christ, and the ultimate gift of life. In this inspirational tale, a young man obtains an unforgettable souvenir that leads him on a spiritual journey into adulthood where life comes full circle and he fulfills his divine destiny.
