Synopsis
When a step-father tries to control how his family navigates their way through the heroic death of the eldest sibling – a son, who had been estranged from the family for many years – this step-father is met with a great deal of scorn and resentment. As the family comes to grips with their loss, they learn about the struggles this son had, the people he saved and the ultimate sacrifice he made. Listen to Grace takes that old hymn and explores “how sweet the sound” is when forgiveness and mercy are eventually embraced and life is transformed through a gentle voice.
