To escape from corrosive anger, feeling tricked by God, Virginia reaches for an unusual volunteer adventure. She hopes to find a positive outlook and grow to trust God again. A non-governmental organization in China, Amity, takes volunteers into the PRC. China is a country she had never visited and had been warned not to visit. In long days in a community at the edge of the Gobi, Virginia sees she has avoided looking at the source of her anger. Rural and remote locations, team differences, student needs, supervision by Communist administrators, and the stress of showing a positive outlook all day, every day, show Virginia the source of her anger. Interactions show her what she needs to do for a healing of spirit that builds trust. Can she choose the right actions?
