Dove Worldview:
 In the inner cities there are many problems for the kids growing up there. They get into trouble by being involved in gangs and other unsuitable situations. This movie tells the story of four kids that find a way to a different and more faithful life. A life much different than the one they had on the streets of LA.

Pastor John Gunn and his wife try to help the kids of LA to change their lives and to do it they get help from John's brother and wife, Randy and Heidi Gunn, who are a traveling Christian Rodeo show. Randi and Heidi take the kids to their ranch. This is where Marcus, Anthony, Rey and Korina learn the important life changing lessons.
