Raised is the fourth and final season of Our Father's Evangelical Church in the fictional town of Monument, California. Grabbing the baton from his grandfather Colby over 90 years later, Ian Block continues the writing of his own personal journal, "Mental Block: Prayers and Observations by Ian Block."
In it, he chronicles his unique life and times for the next 11 years: family friction, the marriages of his two daughters, his first sermon, going back to school, turning 50, befriending Facebook, insurance nightmares, the ups and downs at "O.F.E." that are anything but pastoral, the process of adoption, becoming a grandfather, moving out of state, and the greatest disaster to ever befall his sleepy little town and its one and only church.
"Heads will roll " all the way up to an ending that will hopefully catch no one by surprise Join Ian as he enlightens "Dear Diary" on not only the Son's resurrection power through His local church, but that very same power raising up each and every believer who calls the 100 year-old place their "home away from home."
