When Russian forces cross into Ukraine on February 24, 2022, former Force Recon Marine Chad Robichaux feels God calling him to act. He assembles a team of special operations veterans and makes a decision that will test every bond he holds dear. He asks his twenty-five-year-old son Hunter, himself a Marine combat veteran, to join the mission. Together they make seven dangerous trips into the conflict zone. Chad watches his son grow in confidence and skill among the elite team while civilians face ballistic and chemical weapons attacks around them. The Ukrainian church becomes an unexpected source of strength in the chaos. As father and son navigate the brutality of war together, Chad must learn to release control and trust God with his son's safety. The mission forces both men to confront what it means to help strangers simply because it is right.
