The life of a solitary professor is upended when his teenage niece, whom he barely knows, shows up along with her baggage of family problems and drug problems as well as the usual teenage angst. Between their encounters fraught with emotion, Will is having encounters of another kind, with Jesus Himself. Our Lord is so beautifully presented, it will touch the reader’s heart. Lives are changed although most concrete evidences of it do not come until the conclusion of the book.
