Owen and Beth Wilson are a couple who love God and truth. Together they stand with their children battling those wielding the evil deceptions and persecutions in todays world. They rescue and adopt an infant girl from an abortion mill and help this creative child survive radical new grade school indoctrinations. Their son challenges the deceptions found in college where he meets his soul mate. Together they bring truth to the chaos on campus. The means and motives of those who would destroy America are exposed, and they take vengeance on Owen, jailing him for a murder he did not commit.
These very contemporary catastrophes can only be overcome with the help of the oldest force in our universe.
