Synopsis

God needed a fighter, and He found one in Stu (Mark Wahlberg). Long, who was a boxer, moved to Los Angeles to start a career in acting when boxing didn’t pan out. There, he falls for a woman who's Catholic, and gets baptized. After a near-fatal motorcycle accident left him in the hospital, Long decided he was saved by God for a reason. He turns to religion and eventually joins Oregon's Mount Angel Seminary, where he becomes very popular with the people to whom he preaches.

But when he's diagnosed with a progressive muscle disease, it may interfere with his duties as a priest.


Based on the true-life story of boxer-turned-priest, Father Stuart Long, whose journey from self-destruction to redemption inspired countless people along the way.
