| Still grieving over the
Lakers' loss in the NBA finals, Philip Mackenzie receives a suspicious
note, apparently from God, asking him to come to an abandoned sports bar
in the Oregon wilderness to talk it over. What Phil doesn't realize is
that God is about to reveal Himself in a familiar earthly form that will
powerfully draw him to the Divine. What transpires is a dialogue that
will wrestle with the timeless question, "Where is God when your
favorite sport team stinks?" The answers Phil receives will astound and
transform him as he finally understands who God is for the first time in
his life: a really tall black guy with a heart of gold. |
