If you knew how your life was going to end, would you live it the same way?

Adam is a writer having a conversation with God at a baseball stadium in the Bronx. God chooses Adam because his stream of consciousness since childhood has been heavy on commentary about American life connected to love. God narrates on Adam's baseball field of life.

Rounding first, second, third, and then heading for home, we watch Adam's life: past, present, and future unfold. God is always in on things as he sees and hears everything, but now they sit side-by-side at a baseball game ear-to-ear, no longer separated by space. Their conversation is heavy on capitalism, culture, violence, religion, art, science, and hope. The art of conversation is in danger of being lost, but now more than ever we need to use our American pastimes to bring it back, ear-to-ear, device-to-device, and ask ""What is love?"" And, even further reaching, ""If you knew how your life affected humankind, what would you do differently?""

Slow down and think about the world and love yourself enough to change it. Will Adam find love as life stands in the way?
