Ask yourself, Do you, Want Love?…
Speak it into existence as it shall be. We open up our story, Want Love?… with the OPENING SCENE settled on the establishing shot of the church. Pastor Gibb Wesley is giving his sermon, which makes a few people less than comfortable in their pews. We focus on the George family-typically at every service because to Tucker George-appearances matter.
As the sermon comes to a close, the Pastor’s son-Kaleb-notices Grayce George’s boredom and her reluctance to be involved in church. He can’t help but think she’s hiding something. He might just have to change her way of thinking and show her the light. Moving over the congregation we see the George family reveal their true selves.
Tucker is forcing his wife-Olivia into submission just by the mere glance he gives her. Grayce watches as if it’s normal for their behavior. Olivia yields to him immediately to avoid a public scene. As the Pastor dismisses the service, Grayce finds herself being voluntold to participate in Youth Group being led by none other than the Pastor’s son Kaleb.
As the story unfolds to reveal Matt and Elyse Mason-best friends to Tucker and Olivia, we find out that their marriage is headed for the end. After being married for over a decade and the loss of another pregnancy, Elyse suggests a separation. Matt doesn’t want to lose his wife, so he begins making changes with the help and guidance of Coach/Pastor Wesley.
Through self-discovery and putting his Faith into action, because Faith without works is dead, he regains the love and attraction from Elyse that he had somehow lost through the years. By learning to be more secure in the relationship and with himself, Elyse begins to fall in love with Matt all over again. Building an Unbreakable Marriage rooted in God and love. Tucker and Olivia are constantly at odds and Grayce must deal with the shattered pieces of a battered and abusive father.
As Grayce uncovers that marriages are full of love, grace and happiness by spending time with Kaleb’s parents-the Pastors Gibb and Carly Wesley, she takes her Bible out of the nightstand and begins to pray. Grayce forms an unlikely friendship with Lexie Morgan-from church. Grayce’s family and former boyfriend, Tyler start to see the changes in her behavior. Grayce who was only known for her antics and not so great choices previously, is now a steadfast faith filled teenager (18) who believes that her generation ‘shall be saved’.
Olivia begins to open up about the abusive marriage she has been in for as long as she can remember. She is now trying to figure out, what loves got to do with it? Is it love that she stays for? Or is it because she sees no way out? After watching Grayce make a complete and total turnaround, she begins asking her questions about her newfound faith and trust in God. How could she have let Tucker dim the light that had shown so bright that she once had for God? How will she get it back? Once Olivia starts to gain strength and no longer yields to the controlling behavior of her husband, she starts to love herself once again.
Through the mercy of our loving God, Olivia finds herself worthy of the love she knows she deserves. After a breakdown when Grayce discovers her father’s past time is with Hannah-his paralegal, he begins to shutter at the man staring him in the face as he looks into the mirror. Tucker and Matt run the law firm-Mason, Mason and George, but their partnership and friendship has now begun to suffer the fallout from Tucker’s actions.
The story begins to shed light on the lives of these individuals as they grow stronger in the faith and trust they have put in the Lord. As our Father who reigns in Heaven pours out his mercy, grace and forgiveness through love, these families begin to put back the pieces and build strong relationships once again.
With the climax of the story revealing Tucker bursting through the doors into the church, tears streaming down his face and admitting he can’t do it without God, he falls to his knees repenting of his sins. As the Pastor prays with him, others see his boldness and they begin to walk to the altar. For those with more boldness come first to encourage others to do the same. We close the story with Pastor Wesley as he leads them in the sinner’s prayer and welcomes them all to the Family of God
