When homeschooler Collin Uttley moves to Southern California, he joins a church youth group out of sheer desperation for a social life -- despite being a total atheist. To fit in with the rest of the highschoolers and to increase his odds of scoring a girlfriend, he pretends to be a "believer" and attends every single group activity -- even blindfold dodge ball. His tenacity soon pays off when he meets the girl of his dreams, Shelby Wanderal, who shares his enthusiasm for vintage clothing and swing dancing. When Collin finds out Shelby's going on a summer outreach trip to help refugees on the Thailand-Burma border, he joins the team, thinking it's the perfect opportunity to win her over. However, once in Thailand, things don't go as smoothly as Collin anticipates. A couple of his teammates don't quite buy his "born again" act and one of them -- Twain Abernathy -- even sets out to win Shelby for himself. And it just gets worse when the team enters their first refugee camp and the team leaders are abruptly detained as suspected "drug smugglers" by the border patrol! The highschoolers are then left under the supervision of their zany Thai guide, Jongchit, who convinces them to cross the border into Burma to help the ethnic minorities in the IDP (internally displaced people) camps. The whole team is impacted by the joy and bravery of the IDPs who live inconstant danger of extermination by the Burmese dictatorship. To his surprise, Collin discovers a passion for social justice -- and realizes that there are way bigger issues in life than scoring a girlfriend. However, that doesn't stop him from overreacting when he learns of Shelby and Twain's burgeoning romance. His subsequent error of judgment endangers not only his life -- but the lives of everyone on the border. And it literally takes a miracle to restore what was destroyed -- a miracle which forces Collin to rethink his beliefs about God, spirituality, destiny -- and just what true love really looks like.
