His award-winning investigative reporting recently earned him a promotion to legal editor at the Chicago Tribune. But things weren’t going nearly as well at home where his wife Leslie s newfound faith in Christ went against everything Lee believed or didn’t believe as an avowed atheist. Utilising his journalistic and legal training, Lee begins a quest to debunk the claims of Christianity to save his crumbling marriage.

While on her job as a realtor, Elizabeth visits the house of the elderly Miss Clara who, sensing something wrong within Elizabeth's life, teaches her the art of prayer.

As an exciting new year begins we meet dedicated history teacher, Grace Wesley, and her grieving student, Brooke, who has just lost her brother. Upon learning of Brooke’s recent tragedy, Grace offers her condolences and in the hope of relieving her pain, shares her faith in Christianity. However, when Brooke later asks a question of religion in her history class, another student reports the incident to the school board. Interpreted as a breach of school and state policy, Grace suddenly faces an epic court case that may cost her not only her career but may expel God from the classroom once and for all.
