An injured traveling preacher. A rancher's daughter looking for a husband. One Christmas season that brings them together.

Since the end of the civil war, Leroy has been traveling, spreading the joy of Christ's redemption to anyone who will listen. When he ends up kicked out of town and too injured to move, he thinks it's the end of his ministry.

Sicilia Mariner loves her father, but ever since her mother passed away, it's been hard to find joy in everyday ranch life. When they stumble upon an injured Leroy, they bring him home to their ranch to recover.

Feelings grow as Leroy slowly recovers from his injuries, and the joy of Christ's birth enters the hearts of the Mariner family for the first time in too many years.

Are their hearts prepared for the life the Lord is asking them to live?
