What happens when “God’s Man” seems to be abandoned by God?
Telecommunications industry CEO Wilson McCann is known as “God’s Man” in his community and his industry. But when a series of disasters threaten to overwhelm him, those closest to McCann begin to wonder if God has abandoned him. In addition to the financial, family and physical pain that he endures, a mysterious recluse blocks every opportunity for him to rise above his situation and a hired killer targets him.
Like a modern day Job, McCann looks for God amid the pain and wreckage of his life. He seeks answers to the questions we all ask in times of trial. At the same time, mysterious forces from his past are taking his measure.
