Context
After Bryson failed to fight for custody of Maddie, he stays behind on the farm as Maddie moves in with her sister and her controlling boyfriend. Jamarius, the faith-filled delivery driver, finds Bryson regretting that he was afraid to move past his fear of losing another person he’s close to in his life, which is ultimately exactly what happened by giving up. Jamarius challenges Bryson to listen to what God is telling him to do, which is to leave his protective shell or lose those he loves
