You Go Where You Look

Twenty-two-year-old John is running on empty. A former missionary, he returned home only to lose his footing — drifting away from his faith and drowning in the exhausting, circular chatter of his own overthinking. Desperate for a distraction to shock his system, he makes a reckless, impulsive choice: he signs up for a brutal amateur boxing match.

With only three months to prepare, John finds mentorship in the most unlikely pairing on the beach. His coach is an aged, battle-hardened former boxer. His gym is the wet sand under the local beach pier near Lifeguard Tower 22. And his unorthodox training routine? Lung-burning miles of sand running, coupled with sunrise surfing sessions led by the coach's wife — a fierce, former professional surfer.

But as John struggles to survive the heavy bags and the crushing ocean swells, he learns that his greatest opponent isn't the man across the ring — it's his own mind.

Out on the water, his mentors introduce him to the golden rule of surfing: you go where you look. Stare at your feet, or lock your eyes onto your fears, and you'll wipe out. To survive the waves and the boxing ring, John must lift his gaze from the suffocating confines of his own thoughts and fix it upon something much larger.

To win the fight of his life, John will have to step out of his own shadow, look toward the Light, and find his way back to the path he thought he'd left behind.
