Speak to the Storm

Mo Karras is severely wounded by tragic events in his life. After spending years in a prison's mental ward, he's tossed back onto the streets of New York City as hopeless societal debris. Unable to cope with reality, he chooses the detached life of a recluse to survive. Hiding alone in a small trailer in the rural mountains of North Carolina, his life is defined by an obsession with the game of solitaire and a daily bowl of soup. Mo is pitifully lost. An unavoidable encounter with his neighbors--a fatherless, gospel-breathing firecracker named Hope and her beautiful, but damaged, man-shy mother, Sara--jolt him back into the land of the living. Fueled by their infectious spirit and encouragement, Mo is resurrected. His steady climb from being the local high school's janitor to the head coach of its record-setting football dynasty is living proof of the power of hope to change a life, and more. Speak to the Storm is an inspirational "pit to pinnacle" story of hope and a testament to the power of God to heal and redeem those who, in confident faith, learn to speak His peace into the storms of life.
