Description
Pastor Evan Bennett takes on more than he bargained for when he arrives in Connersville, Indiana, to settle into his new role at Egypt Valley Community Church. Out of funds and out of touch with the community, Evan's new church needs a strong leader to stand up to tradition. Inspired by the challenge, Evan and several members of the congregation set out to rebuild relationships, repair the broken-down facility, and replenish the church's bank account.
When a major spending issue threatens the church's very survival, Evan steps in with a controversial budget proposal. However, his cuts to the foreign missions spending do not sit well with the Haman family and the traditional members who cling to the seven deadly words: "We've never done it that way before." Soon, what begins as a debate over giving becomes a holy war with Evan as the target. Based on actual events, this powerful drama will delight you, surprise you, and inspire you to know that sometimes, questioning the status quo can lead to the best outcome of all.
