Ben’s fathers, Ben Foster, Sr., is a great gospel minister in Dallas Texas at the Cherry Valley Church of Christ, and was in high spirits to know that his son would follow in his foot steps.
Even though Ben had only preached a few sermons I knew that he would have become a sound doctrine minister, because Ben would not have wavered from the word of God, but instead would have been a book, chapter, and verse preacher, trying to save the souls of those who were lost.
For Ben was able to heal the souls of those who did not know or have forgotten God, he was able to argue in the spiritual courtroom against our adversary Satin, and Ben was soldier who fought on the battlefield in the spiritual war between good and evil.

In the first, high school senior Ben Kurtzman (Ben Foster) finds himself repeatedly caught between rocks and hard places, trying to understand the grown-up business of race and class distinctions, and especially the ways that his parents deal with them.
