Synopsis

A bolt of lightning struck First Baptist of Ivy Gap, igniting a fire that destroyed the sanctuary.

In the wake of the disaster, key women of the church gather in what's left (the fellowship hall) to commiserate and try to put things back together.

To raise spirits and funds for rebuilding, the women plan an evening of entertainment designed to showcase the congregation's talent.

Could it be that some of Edith's gang plan a song and dance number that would shock the congregation?

If so, how will they circumvent the authority of the all-male conservative board of deacons?

Change is in the air as these six diverse women challenge institutions as well as each other.

Along the way, there are laughs to be shared, battles to be fought, love to be won, relationships to be mended, and losses to be grieved
