On Nigeria's Jos Plateau, a farmer-pastor of little strength shepherds a hunted church through three kind offers of escape — the prophets' rapture, the road abroad, the system's safe corridor — and learns the difference between being lifted out and being kept.
The Open Door follows Davou Gyang, a maize farmer pastoring a Plateau church because nobody else stayed, as a frightened world is remade by an order promising safety. Three times his people are offered a way out: the prophets' rescue, his brother's visas abroad, a corridor for the faithful. His church loses everything and grows, and the smallest man learns the open door was never a way out.
