Thom Lemmons

In a modern retelling of the biblical story of Job, a college dean, Alexis, is drawn to Professor Joseph Barnes, but when Joseph's career begins to crumble, Alexis must decide if she should rescue him from his circumstances.

Although Jabez is mentioned in only two verses of the Bible, his beautiful and rich prayer recorded there has become a mantra to many. Lemmons has done a bit of research to invent a life for Jabez--to make it interesting, Jabez is portrayed as he interacts with a not so supportive family, as well as with the Judge Ehud, who we find out has a close tie to him.
