Everyone thought the ten month courtship and marriage between Willie Green the strait-laced pastor of the traditional Harvest Baptist church and Vanessa Morton the dynamo preacher-pastor from the contemporary Mt. Pleasant Baptist church was too soon. Neither pastor realized that after the nuptials all heck would break loose as they planned to combine their respective churches. The honeymoon abruptly comes to an end as Willie tries to maintain control of his congregation as the staunch Deacon Charley Thompson and a group of dissenters go to extreme lengths to keep their religious routine going at Harvest. Meanwhile Vanessa struggles with the new balancing act of being a competent co-pastor and a nurturing first lady to her husband. The price of having too much too soon leads them both to deal in their own way with letting go of the way things used to be.
