  Maggie never had a good example in her life of what it means to love and be loved. Yet, in the end, she is willing to mother Eli. What is it that gives her the courage to believe that she can be the mother he needs?

  Although Maggie is a young Christian, she understands an important truth about repentances. She knows that it does not simply mean saying she is sorry, but also involves completely turning her life around. Has she accomplished this?

  What could you achieve if you didn’t let past mistakes keep you from moving forward?
