After 25 years in the armed services, and several tours in the Middle East, a Marine named Richard “Mac” McKinney came back to the United States filled with rage toward Muslims. In what he viewed as a final mission for his country, McKinney made plans to blow up the mosque in his Indiana hometown. However, an interaction with his own daughter changed the course of his life. Upon learning about his daughter’s friendship with a Muslim child - “Mac” filled with hate. However, his young daughter’s reaction of such disappointment to his prejudice was impactful… and ultimately changed his life. He decided to go to the mosque and meet members of the Muslim community. On his first visit to the mosque, he was welcomed by the community and was given a copy of the Quran… and it was suggested he return with any questions he had. He returned two months later… and followed a journey from hatred to understanding.
