It was God who put us in this situation in the first place.
Vic felt like the Rogers family was at the bottom of the list when God started answering prayers.
Seventeen-year-old Vic Rogers is having a hard time just surviving. An alcoholic father as a role model coupled with a reading disability keeps him from doing well in school and his young life doesn’t show much promise. Vic decides that selling drugs in his inner city neighborhood is the only way that he can make it. When circumstances take a drastic turn, Vic is forced to make some changes or risk his freedom and his future in a tale that offers a fresh, real perspective on faith and hope.
