The minister’s new wife, Reba, is spirited, kind, and compassionate-she has made the town minister incredibly happy and has organized his affairs so that he can focus on the work of the Lord. Despite all of this, there is still contention in the church due to rebellious youths that threatens to tear the town apart. Reba decides to use her talents in poetry to bring everyone together for the holidays.
