“A Time For Every Purpose” is a gritty inspirational film that follows three drifting souls, shepherded by a local Pastor, searching for purpose in a world full of chaos. In the end, Clark (Wade Hunt Williams), Reggie (Zachary S. Williams), Ruth (Alexia Aldebol), and Paul (Eric Diaz) discover that purpose and reason might not show up together, but time reveals all.
Pastor Clark is a wise and seasoned leader of a church and community. A war vet. A lost and found soul himself. But recently in these later years, his impact seems to have lost its touch, particularly on a young man named Reggie, a high school student struggling with deep social issues. The two work through a seemingly curious struggle, we only later discover a devastating incident from the young man’s past. His waking life is haunted by a trauma he never saw coming and didn’t deserve.
The pastor’s work may be cut out for him, but he also once thought the same thing of Ruth Samuels, and she’s turned quite the corner until a recent roadblock. A reformed wild child and addict, Ruth along with her son, 5-year-old David, live together in a small apartment. Every month might be tight but they’re getting by, and more importantly getting further away from her past. The past, however, has a way of finding us sometimes. Ruth’s problems all come from the name of Doug, her ex and subsequently father of David. He’s a small-time hustler, wanna be pimp, who uses Ruth by feeding her temptations with substances. A dangerous mix and all she wants is out.
And while everyone in town battles their own demons in the comfort of their homes, one man is forced to live with his demons in the street. Paul Westlyn, an Afghanistan war vet with PTSD, struggles to make every day come together as he most recently has found himself without a home. On the street he learns what rock bottom really is. A new friend helps change his perspective but at a high cost.
In the right time and in the right place, our purpose can be found.
