The last time we saw Evan Baxter, he was being tormented by rival Bruce Nolan onscreen, live from their Buffalo TV station. But as time passed and Evan has made up with Bruce, he’s gone onto bigger and better things. Newly elected to Washington D.C. as a congressman, Evan has left Buffalo, New York in pursuit of a greater calling. But that calling isn’t serving in the illustrious ranks of America’s politics, but being summoned by the Almighty himself, who has handed Evan the task of building a new ark, much as Noah did before. With time passing by and his family belittled by Evan’s newfound realization, Evan will have to do the work that God has given him in what promises to be an unusual adventure for a man who just wanted to serve his country, might actually be serving humanity.
MPAA: Rated PG for mild rude humor and some peril.

Watching this scene in my Sunday School Class no one noticed a comment made by God (played by Morgan Freeman), "Let it out son, it's the begining of wisdom". If we claim to believe in God, but do not fear the consequences of disobeying Him and His plan then we are liars. If we walk away like Evan then we really don't understand who God is or our place. We want the gifts of our Father's house, but don't think we have to mind the rules. We just want a buddy. He wants to be our Father.
