Overview

Soon is not just a promised destination, but also the beginning of a whirlwind journey.

After a ten-month courtship, everyone thought the marriage between Willie Green, the straight-laced pastor of the traditional Harvest Baptist Church, and Vanessa Morton, the dynamo preach-pastor from the contemporary Mount Pleasant Baptist Church, was too soon. Neither pastor realized that after the nuptials, all hell 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, while 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.
