Despite Martha’s meanness to Eli and his friends, they show up with the unconditional love she has always missed. The conviction that Eli is something more than just another student at Kennedy High School has been growing. Now Martha must decide between her legalistic church and this kind and amazing person others are calling the Messiah. Lives hang in the balance.
