Michael Bennett is a successful investment banker whose pride has cost him his marriage and shattered his relationship with his father. Guilt finally pushes him to make the long drive to his father's 70th birthday—but when a freak storm shuts down the interstate, Michael is forced onto unfamiliar mountain roads. As the supernatural storm intensifies, his GPS fails, his phone dies, and a mysterious inner voice begins issuing warnings. Ignoring it nearly gets him killed.
Rattled by a series of impossible near-misses and eerie "coincidences," Michael follows the voice and begins experiencing things he can't explain—visions of disasters before they happen, strangers who appear at just the right moment, and guidance that seems to come from God Himself. The more he listens, the more lives he touches—including a dramatic rescue at a collapsed bridge that God really is speaking. Maybe He always has been.
But hearing God is one thing—acting on it is another. As his cousin Mark's words echo—"Pride's a prison"—Michael begins to realize that spiritual deafness isn't just dangerous—it's deadly. When he arrives at the hospital and learns his father has suffered a massive heart attack, Michael must decide whether to let pride have the final word—or finally listen to the voice that's been calling him home all along.
