Jesse Dean is a recently discharged soldier who had a rough upbringing, but because of his wife, found God and now is totally devoted to his faith. He and wife move to Philadelphia so he can take a new job as an outreach leader at an old church whose membership has been declining. As everything is going well and as he starts connecting to the community, he discovers there's an abortion clinic directly across the street from the church. He goes to the pastor and to several others in the church and tries to get their help to no avail. One day something tragic and personal happens to him while he's going about his everyday routine. He comes to the point that he begins to take action himself. He gets involved but the more involved he gets, the more resistance he gets from those in church and community. His wife, who thinks his actions will get him fired or land him in jail, also comes against him. Finally, it comes down to him having to make a choice: is he going to take the easy way out ...
This is a powerful movie! The film Demonstrates what a powerful difference One person can make in their community And how standing for what is right can Influence the people we come in contact With in our daily lives. Also, it demonstrates That when we are unwilling to confront evil, It can persist in our own cities and communities. I thought the acting was very good, the setting Was perfect and the story line was believable. I thought me main character Playing the pastor was realistic in the sense of someone returning From war and trying to adjust to civilian life. I was somewhat concerned With the fighting that was in the movie but after finishing the movie, I thought it fit the setting and plot and most of it was defensive in nature. Unfortunately, in poor inner city communities, Violence is part of every day life and it is something we should all oppose. The "violence" that was in this movie I took as "keeping it real"! Any negative Comments related to "interracial marriage" is uncalled for because we are One human race!
