There are serious financial troubles in the church, secrets the Pastor shares with his closest employee, Samantha, (Maya Dunbar) the Church Secretary and unexplained agendas. As well, though Vivica has born two beautiful, healthy twin girls, there are problems simmering in the Jenkins marriage.

But its not just that. As a highly intelligent and accomplished woman, though Vivica knows her first and most important new job is being a good mother, she has long wanted greater support from her husband for her need to use herself for positive pursuits in addition to standing behind him and raising their children. The main concern that keeps Pastor Jenkins from satisfying his wife's desires in his all consuming efforts to save the Church, a 100 year old institution. Dealing with many challenges, including the sudden retirement of long time church leader, Deacon Bates, (Kevin Benton) due to health reasons, Pastor Jenkins is trying to oversee his ambitious brainstorm to create funding for the church and invigorate local employment.Following the case of Pastor Jenkins reckless moment on the road - is Detective Herbert Lewis, (Adam Lazarre-White) his own family gone, due to a similar fate a fatal car accident. The driver of the car that killed his wife and children is a local politician who has enjoyed a successful career, seemingly unaffected by the day that changed Det. Lewiss life forever. Det. Lewis doesn't really like Pastor Jenkins, who he sees, along with other public figures, hobnobbing with the very politician who killed his family. More than that, Lewis recognizes Brittney not to be a college student at all, but to be a girl he arrested several times for prostitution, in his work as a Vice Detective. When Pastor Jenkins is acquitted and no blame assigned, Lewis cannot accept it. He knows something is wrong with the whole situation. Something is unexplained. Against orders from his captain, Captain Kittridge, (Tucker Smallwood) and the advice of his partner, Lewis pursues both Brittney and Pastor Jenkins, watching them, sniffing around for something, anything, that can shine a light on what he is convinced is an ugly underbelly. ...But is Lewis just obsessed with the tragedy of another family killed senselessly in a car accident like his own?Det. Lewis cannot seem to find anything really wrong with Pastor Jenkins accept to stumble on the fact that he appears very close with the Church Secretary employee, Samantha. While his cops nature - and his own personal agenda to catch Pastor Jenkins in wrongdoing might suspect the Pastors infidelity, Lewis sees nothing illegal. He does discover, however, that Brittney is still a working girl. She has graduated from street-walker to private escort, her services now secured through a high-end online entity. Lewis stakes out Brittneys home and follows the trail.Furthermore, it is revealed to us that the entity that runs Brittneys escort service, is in fact, shockingly, Pastor Jenkins Church. Though Samantha manages all details, payments and profits, Pastor Jenkins is well aware that the money for his parking lot, the payments for long held, overwhelming debts and his now flourishing church, many thousands of dollars each month - is funded by the buying and selling of these young womens sexual services.After catching Pastor Mckenzie, a regular customer of Britneys, Det. Lewis uses that leverage to arrest Brittney, and discover more about her employers. He is led to the First AME Church of Canton, Samanthas phone and ultimately, Pastor Jenkins.

After three years of repentance and rehabilitation, Joseph has grown wiser, more humble and rededicated himself to the purpose and principles that led him to become a pastor in the first place.While all sins leave scars and all paths have obstacles, Joseph finds that some healing has taken place over time.
