Christianity is replete with paradoxes-give to receive, sacrifice to gain, die to live. It is how God set up His eternal economy and established it as the means by which He would rescue the Universe from its fallen state. Indeed, He willingly submitted Himself to this system for it was His love, surrender, commitment, and sacrifice that established forever our way of escape from the misery of Adam's error now and on into that great city meant for our habitation when God closes the door on this era. Randal Simpson is a divorced Dad who has (as much as humanly possible) done everything right. Still, he loses custody of his adopted daughter, Amber, to her manipulative mother who abandoned the family for six years searching for fame and fortune. The ex-wife succeeds in completely severing father and daughter for almost two decades. Randal, under the direction and encouragement of Christian community, comes to understand that his first and foremost responsibility is to provide for and protect the child who carries his name even if he is forced to do so in absentia. In Spite of the poison dished out by her ever vindictive mother, Amber is haunted by the natural desire to discover the man whose name she bears. This desire eventually takes her on a transforming (and trying) journey over a three month period transporting her (resistant all the way) back in time and across three state lines. In the end, however, it will be her father's love, surrender, commitment, and sacrifice that brings about healing, reconciliation and renewal for both of them.
