"A Time For Every Purpose" unfolds as a raw and uplifting cinematic journey, tracing the paths of three aimless spirits under the guidance of a community pastor, as they navigate a tumultuous world in search of meaning. Ultimately, Clark (Wade Hunt Williams), Reggie (Zachary S. Williams), Ruth (Alexia Aldebol), and Paul (Eric Diaz) come to realize that purpose and rationale may not emerge simultaneously, but with the passage of time, all becomes clear.
Pastor Clark stands as a venerable and experienced figure at the helm of a church and community, bearing the scars of war and the triumphs of a once-lost, now-found soul. However, in the twilight of his years, his influence appears to wane, especially on Reggie, a high school student grappling with profound social challenges. Together, they confront a mysterious and arduous journey, only to unveil a poignant incident from Reggie's past. The young man's waking existence is shadowed by an unexpected and unjust trauma that continues to haunt him.
The pastor faces a challenging task, reminiscent of when he thought similarly about Ruth Samuels, who has traversed a remarkable journey until recently encountering a significant obstacle. Once a reformed rebel and addict, Ruth and her 5-year-old son, David, now share a modest apartment. While their financial situation remains tight each month, they manage to persevere, steadily distancing themselves from Ruth's tumultuous past. Unfortunately, the past tends to resurface unexpectedly. Ruth's current predicaments revolve around Doug, her ex and David's father. A small-time hustler with aspirations of being a pimp, Doug ensnares Ruth by enticing her with substances. It's a perilous combination, and all Ruth yearns for is a way out.
While the townsfolk grapple with their personal demons within the confines of their homes, one man contends with his own struggles on the unforgiving streets. Paul Westlyn, an Afghanistan war veteran grappling with PTSD, faces the daily challenge of piecing his life together after recently finding himself homeless. On the streets, he encounters the harsh reality of rock bottom. A newfound companion helps shift his perspective, but not without a significant sacrifice.
Amidst the ebb and flow of life, our purpose awaits discovery at the right time and in the right place. Ultimately, Clark, Reggie, Ruth, and Paul come to realize that purpose and rationale may not manifest simultaneously, but with the passage of time, the intricate story unfolds, guided by a higher power.
