Adapted from Karen Kingsbury’s best-selling books, this ensemble family drama follows Elizabeth and John Baxter and their adult children as they deal with life’s highs and lows, both with and without the help of God.

In the week before Christmas, veterinarian Allie Shaw, who has lived her entire life in the Northern Vermont Christmas tourist town of Evergreen, is moving to Washington DC to be with Spencer, her boyfriend of two years, to see if the long distance is the issue in the stagnation of their relationship as they suspect.

Subjected to bullying from her peers, fed up with her parents’ demands, and irked by her younger sibling, Cassie, a goth girl, resolves to take innocuous retaliation by reading a spine-chilling book to her brother. However, this seemingly harmless act inadvertently leads to the summoning of a monstrous entity.
