Dove Review

There are many times in a young person’s life that he/she just wants to get away from where he/she grew up. A young person often craves change. Jason is studying for the bar exam and he returns home to do so. But he finds himself participating at church as the youth pastor and helping those around him.

There are many dramatic situation portrayed in this film. The film tells a good story and we award it our Dove Seal for ages twelve plus.
