God Friended Me

GOD FRIENDED ME is a humorous, uplifting drama about an outspoken atheist whose life is turned upside down when he receives a friend request on social media from God and unwittingly becomes an agent of change in the lives and destinies of others around him.

Miles gets the opportunity of a lifetime when a satellite company wants to put his podcast on the air, and the God Account suggests that he befriends a single mother. Also, Cara tries to build a relationship with her estranged mom, and Rakesh is crushed when he spots Jaya (recurring guest star SHAZI RAJA) on a date.

Miles’s wallet is stolen when he, Rakesh and Cara check out a food truck the God Account suggests that he “like.” But when the account then suggests that he befriend a private investigator, Miles decides to turn the table and have the PI help him track down the thief, who Miles believes is linked to the account.

Suggestions from the God Account lead Miles and Cara to the Hayden Planetarium, where they meet a young woman, Fliss (guest star ANNALEIGH ASHFORD) who is searching for her old boyfriend who may have been “the one.” Also, Rakesh and Jaya look into a tour guide at the planetarium who Rakesh thinks may be connected to the God Account, and Arthur tries to put a piece of his past behind him.

The God Account unfriends Miles after he’s reluctant to act on the latest friend suggestion – a young woman who’s dealing with emotional trauma following the death of her sister. Also, Cara reconnects with her ex-boyfriend, Eli (guest star KYLE HARRIS); Jaya stuns Rakesh with some news; and Arthur is uncomfortable when Miles turns to his uncle Terrance (guest star MALIK YOBA) for advice instead of him.

While Miles enrolls in a marketing class to help him promote his podcast, he is sent a friend suggestion for a cab driver who is opposed to his daughter marrying outside their faith.
