Joe came out of prison a changed man. There would be no more drugs and no more crime. He had lived precariously all his adult life, but he hoped to leave all that behind. He was starting over.

Joe found his way to his grandfather's house in a small town. He faced his challenges head on, but there was one memory he couldn't shake. Coming out of prison, Joe discovered that he had a two-year-old son. Little Stevie was thriving with parents who loved him, and Joe wouldn't interfere. Long ago, he'd decided to never have kids. No sweet little kid deserved a dad like him.

Joe went to church and joined a men's Bible study. Many of the people he met there reminded him about-but more importantly, showed him-God's love and grace. Compelled by this truth, Joe gave his life to Christ, and God began to use him.

But then tragedy struck. After picking up the newspaper at the coffee shop, Joe shouted out in anguish at what he had read. His mind was numb. His heart was broken. What could he do? Joe didn't understand, but soon he would stand amazed as he watched God's plan unfold.
