Second Glance

Summary Daniel (David A.R. White), a young Christian attending a public high school, feels like his religion places too many restrictions on him and wishes to have some freedom from Bible teachings so he can be more popular and date the girl he likes. One night Daniel wishes that he had "never become a believer," and the next day he has a rude awakening: His room is different, his house is dirty, and an angel meets him and explains to him that the "Heavenly Father" answered his prayer and now his life is as if he never became a Christian. He soon finds out that the two bullies at school are now his best friends and enjoys the fact that the girl he really liked now likes him too. But all is not well. He goes on to learn that his younger sister no longer exists because his parents got divorced years ago in his alternate life. He is also shocked when his mom prances off to go on a date with someone other than his father, who has moved to Los Angeles. The angel appears and points out Daniel's nice car--which he got by betting money on football games the year before. Daniel says he has never gambled in his life, but the angel points out that his life is different now and it is as if he had never been a believer. Daniel also thinks the whole thing a big prank and he does not believe the angel. View more details
