When Rayford Johnson, Jr., The Man of God, returns home for a funeral, he has no idea his life will be changed forever. He sees his high school sweetheart for the first time in 20 years and realizes he has never stopped loving her. But what tore them apart as teenagers – her marriage to someone else and the child that was born of the union – threatens to separate them apart once again. At the same time, his rock, his example, Rayford, Sr. reveals a secret to the family. It is potentially devastating and sends The Man of God or “ManMan” as he is called, to the very edge of his faith. He wages a war in the spirit realm that pits his soul against forces that tempt him to act in evil, vindictive ways. In the end, the lesson he knows God is trying to teach him has little to do with him and all to do with forgiveness.
