Knocking

How do you walk a tightrope when it's unraveling beneath your feet?

Tonya is a tireless pastor's wife, but when her daughter plays a prank on their reclusive neighbor, her orderly life blows up. Is her husband really having an affair? Who is this neighbor, and why won't she come out of her house? How can she get her daughter to come back home? Does Tonya even have a home anymore?

Meanwhile, seven senior ladies are starting a church down the street. What are they thinking, taking on such a venture at their age? Tonya is tempted to roll her eyes at them, but she might need them.

The ladies don't know it yet, but the whole town needs them. And with God's help, they are up for the challenge.
