That is, until a fugitive from the local animal shelter sneaks into camp and everything changes.

Jake Wilson is something peculiar in the deep-south Bible belt town of Warner Robins, GA. He's a single pastor. In his early thirties, he's built a large, contemporary church with plans for an expansive building project. His nine-year-old goddaughter, Boston, lives on the other side of the country. When her parents are killed in a car accident, she becomes an orphan, and Jake becomes an overnight father.

Twelve authors spin tales of true believers facing impossible odds, risking this life in the hope of gaining something better after.
