I am currently (2017) the Pastor of Covenant Christian Reformed Church in Woodstock, Ontario, Canada. I am married to Debora and have three girls (Lexa, Paige, Erin).
This particular book/story is geared towards the Eli's of the world primarily and how God will relentlessly pursue His wayward/lost children. The church in this story did not let him down and neither did his parents. (That is intentional). It's a modern Jacob-like story where Eli had to wrestle with God and embrace/surrender to the God of his parents for himself.

Hi Paula,
I believe that the 20's group would most relate to this story. I'd love to hear if that is the case. Please let me know.
BTW: Paula is a main character in this novel. :)
