Birgit is a pastor who has always lived a quiet, predictable life, closely following the path laid out by her parents. But one day, someone from her past unexpectedly shows up during a sermon—someone she once loved—she’s forced to revisit a part of herself she thought was long gone. As buried feelings resurface, Birgit must ask herself: can the past offer strength, or only heartache?
