Farmer Delwin Howe is struck by lightening and left unable to speak coherently. His minister, Reverend Randy Stone, interprets this as speaking in “tongues” and with the help of church trustee, Tom Fletcher, uses Del’s affliction to further his ministry in a high stakes bid for national prominence in a world of evangelistic competition. Stone succumbs to the temptations of infidelity and wanton personal success that detour him from a moral path. His struggles with his commitment to God eventually lead to his subsequent reaffirmation and desire for redemption. In The Price of Redemption everything has a cost.
