About this listen
Ethan—a white teenager growing up in a black home and community—loses his adoptive mother in a car crash, which sets him on a desperate journey to find his place in the world. His father has always had trouble showing his love for Ethan, and this only makes things worse. While he has a very special relationship with his adoptive sister, he feels profoundly lost and out of place, so he steals money from the church and from his father, then heads out on the road to find his birth parents. But the further he strays from home, the more he begins to lose his faith in God and his moral compass, until he is saved and brought back to the church in the most unexpected of ways.
Meanwhile, a parallel narrative is unfolding fifteen years in the future as a very different Ethan is locked in a power struggle with his cunning rival over who will guide the future of the same church he had strayed from as a kid. Still an outsider to some, but now with an unmistakable commitment to God and to his community, Ethan Must revisit the lessons he learned as a teenager to bring his community and his church back together.
