Reaching From Heaven

Just as church services are letting out, a shabbily-dressed stranger is run over by an automobile in front of the church. The stranger is helped mentally and physically by the minister and congregation members, who help him regain his self-confidence and also to accept the death of his wife.

My take

A quietly moving story about spiritual redemption and human kindness. A stranger's life intersects with faith and compassion, reshaping how he sees himself and grief. Perfect for when you want something gentle that still touches the heart.
