Do you know Jesus?

Well, I didn't.

Not until he found me in a world full of misfits.

In that life, following Jesus became a liability fast.

So I left and set out to right the one wrong I could.

Little did I know, this journey would change my life forever.

Can I help you?

Are you Mike Brighton?

Uh, I might be.

Is this your tank bag?

No.

What is it that you want?

You know Jesus?

No.

Thank you.

A few dozen Mike Brightens later.

Can't say I'm much closer to finding the right Mike.

But I'm trusting the Lord has a plan for me.

Well, where you want me to go next?

Alright, I'll choose.

know there's no shortage of folks that need the kind of help I can give.

Now, I'm not saying I'll ever come close to the work that Jesus did, but I am

willing to take his lead.

I like your bike.

Thanks, I like it too.

Sell it?

No.

Sure?

Yeah, I'm sure.

No, I don't want to sell the bike.

You know Jesus?

Oh, that's true.

Yeah, I know it goes so she wants to know your home No, man, Jesus.

Hey, man, you gotta move your truck Right, I gotta go

I guess no one around here knows Jesus.

So why do you think they went after him?

Jake, his dad owns a good chunk along the border.

Put up his own fence, patrols it himself.

Probably why they targeted his kid.

There's kidnappings every month up and down the border.

Cartel, coyotes, gangs, extortion, retribution.

It's a good thing you were there.

I guess so.

We good here, sir?

Yeah, we're good.

All right. Take care.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm good.

I'm Simon.

Jake.

Hey, thanks for stepping in the way you did.

No problem.

Anything I can do to help, let me know. Actually, looking for a few days' work

just to make some gas money and get down the road.

If you know anybody looking.

Yeah, my dad, he's got a ranch.

We're always looking for extra hands.

I'm an extra hand.

All right, cool. Just follow me.

Cool.

Well, it's about time you got back.

My cows have been waiting on you.

Dad, I left you a message.

Boy, don't give me any lip.

Give me a reason you're two hours late this time.

A couple guys tried to kidnap me.

Apparently they didn't.

What's this fella got to do with it?

Well, he beat the crap out of them.

Is there anything I can do for you?

I could use a few days' work.

Got plenty of that.

Pays $100 a day, plus room and board.

Name's Simon.

J.M. Sterling.

You can call me Mr. Sterling.

Yes, sir.

Jake, put him to work.

Let's finish this up.

Dad wants to see you at the house

We'll

come in Jake said you wanted to see me Where you

from Simon not much of anywhere anymore

The Bible says those who do the will of my Father are the same as my brother,

sister, and mother.

Jake said you took apart those thugs pretty good.

You have experience in that.

I served my country.

I never thanked you for what you've done.

Still haven't.

What you drinking?

Leave, I'll just take water.

I'm just drinking sweet tea.

I'll take sweet tea then.

Want some tea?

Nah, I'm good.

What about you, sir?

You have any more family than just Jake?

Wife got tired of the ranching life.

The other kids left with her, except for Jake here.

Couldn't stomach this part of the country and all that comes with it.

The problem with that, if everybody runs north like that, pretty soon the

southern border is going to catch us.

The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof.

the world, and all that dwell therein.

Are you going to keep quoting the Bible to me every time I ask you a question?

Honestly, sir, I just feel like we should do good everywhere we can.

As I recall, one of the goods in the Bible is to protect the sheep from the

wolves. The sheep on both sides.

Oh, I agree.

And we're going to protect our own.

Can't get caught up with what's going on on the other side when we hadn't got it

together over here.

Respectfully, I disagree.

You see, son, that's how real men act when they disagree.

Well, we got cows to hay.

Thank you for the tea and for the job, sir.

Brought you dinner. You weren't here, so I went for a walk.

Well, what are you doing?

I'm out of the club.

Well, that's a good thing, right?

It wasn't received well.

What happened?

I hurt Ringo pretty bad. He came at me. We got into it.

So what are you going to do?

I have to leave town.

It's the only way to keep you safe.

Go to the police. Make a deal.

They won't make a deal.

Not against the club and certainly not with me.

No. Let me talk to them.

some innocent angel.

You don't know them. I know you.

They are not me.

Your way of dealing with things has got you into this.

So let me try.

I'll tell them that I haven't seen you.

Jake's going to give you a tour of the perimeter.

Show you what we're protecting.

Give you a little taste of what it's like in border country.

I take it we're not just looking for lost cattle.

You take it right.

I'm not killing anyone.

I'm not asking you to.

I don't want the district attorney knocking on my door with a warrant for

murder.

You bring them in alive.

If you can't, we've done the best we can with the laws we're given.

You boys be safe.

You ever killed anyone?

Me and dad were running fences.

This was back when we were patrolling at night.

And we come across this ridge and spot a campfire

in the valley below.

It's just three men.

I'm cooking a rabbit with fur on, guts in.

If I was in that kind of hurry, I was just eating it raw.

We got close enough to the end that we could smell burnt hair before we made

ourselves known.

It gets a little fuzzy after that, but...

The next thing I remember, one of them's on top of my dad.

One of them ran off, and the third one's coming at me,

swinging a machete.

Just total loco-like.

And I'm stumbling backwards to the brush.

shooting at the ground, just trying to scare him off.

But the way he's acting, though, I'm not even sure he hears it.

Honestly, the one thing that kept me from shooting at him was all the times I

remember Dad telling me never to shoot one of them unless...

I absolutely had to.

And I guess in that moment, I just... I don't know, I just didn't feel like it

was that time yet.

And Dad said I did good.

Said I exercised real good trigger discipline.

They never asked me what I was really thinking about when it was going on.

Which was?

How gross the rabbit was going to taste.

Is that weird that I was thinking that?

You'd be surprised what you think about when someone's trying to kill you.

You wanna know how it ended?

You're both still here.

Can I help you?

You dozer's girl.

You mean like he owns me?

No. I mean like, is he here?

I haven't seen him.

We got into a fight last week over that Jesus kick he's on.

Seems like he cares more about that book than me.

So what is it that you're doing here?

I brought dinner.

Looks like you're not the only one who wants to have a talk with him.

That's right.

Simon has something that belongs to us.

So he shows up here, you make sure you contact the bar on the corner of 5th

Street.

Because his sins can easily become yours.

You have a good evening, little silly.

I'll go with you.

No.

You got your job and your family.

And you heard Ringo.

These sins are mine. Let's keep them that way.

You're safer here with me gone.

For how long?

I don't know.

Look, Jackie.

You're the only good thing that's ever happened to me and I cannot let them

hurt you.

I want you to have this.

I don't want your dirty money.

Spot up here.

About like seven generations back.

My grandparents.

All of them.

That's where we spread their ashes.

Wow.

You know that guy?

No, why is he standing in the truck?

I don't know. Let's check it out.

I've never seen coyotes wearing body armor before.

It's because they're not coyotes.

Drug smugglers?

I don't know.

They're looking for something or somebody.

You see those?

It's a girl.

I've seen it.

Upside that bush over there.

What will they do if they find her?

Depends on why they're looking for her.

Well, we should help her.

Kid, those guys that came after you at the store, those were just thugs. It was

a whole different breed.

Just cover me with the rifle.

Jake! Jake!

Go left.

Thank you.

without you doing it.

Fire it up! Fire it up!

Looks like you got one. Yeah, not exactly.

They may be following us. We've got to get everybody out of here.

Get the shot.

Jake, call this in.

You need to come in here too, sir.

Stay here.

What do they want with you?

That's a nice story.

But why didn't you go to the police?

And they want you?

Wait a minute. What are you thinking?

I'm thinking this ain't my fight.

No, I can't let you do that. You have no say.

Dad.

This is my call.

Don't be a coward. I ain't no coward.

I'm keeping you alive.

Señor.

I didn't even propose.

I'm sorry to come to your land and bother you.

But the woman you have inside, she crossed your border illegally.

I need her back.

Her father is a political dissident.

They're going to kill her.

Just be quiet.

No es su problema, senor.

Give her to us, and you...

And your family, your ranch, will be in peace.

You have my word.

He will cure all of us.

All of us.

I'm going to go talk to him.

Don't be foolish.

Is it foolish if God's on my side?

Señor, I need an answer.

Oh Lord, be with me.

Señor!

What

can

I do to resolve this?

Nada, mio.

Si me quieres a mí, aquí estoy.

Catalina, I need you to come with me right now.

No, por favor. Por favor, te lo explico.

No, señor.

Señor.

Señor.

This is in your fight.

No, Karen, please.

Please.

This is all a misunderstanding, honey.

This is all a misunderstanding.

We can fix it.

Sir!

Sir! Your father!

Sir!

You're right.

Sheriff.

Yeah, J.M.

What are they going to do with her?

She's wanting to claim asylum.

And what she says is true. She'll get it.

Takes time, though. You know that.

You're not talking to me.

Tell me about your father.

What do you want to know?

He's a good father.

Can he help you?

No.

He is broken.

I'm going to help with anything you need.

No!

Jake, come here.

Come here, son.

I found your chick good today.

And I'm proud of you.

Go feed that cow.

Go feed her.

I am too.

Faith in God means trusting in him to take care of you.

Of us.

I know that.

Not with your soul, you don't.

I'm not going to lie to you and tell you that I'm going to wait forever.

But I will be here when you figure out what real faith is.

Dad said he gave you some extra.

Let's put it towards Catalina's attorney.

Simon, how's the shoulder?

Healed up nicely.

Good.

We appreciate what you've done.

If you ever come back this way again, you got a place to stay.

Me Casa is a Sue Casa.

You got family now, son.

That means a lot. Thank you.

Sure you got to go?

I do.

All right.

Y'all take care of yourselves.

God bless you.

You know, when the Lord takes us on a journey, we may not always understand

his plan or know his path.

It's not always easy, but I just keep the faith.

I am a son of thunder, and this is my story.
