It's Christmas time again, and angels Monica (Roma Downey), Tess (Della Reese) and Andrew (John Dye) are on their traditional Yuletide assignment. The three angels become involved in the trials and tribulations of the Benson family, whose son Cody (Christopher Marquette) suffers from Tourette's Syndrome, and whose dad Joe (Richard Lineback) is serving prison time for accidentally killing a teenager in a fit of anger. Things aren't going so well for mom Kathy (Kathleen Wilhoite) either; thanks to a campaign of hatred engineered by the mother (Ann Bosler) of Joe's victim, Kathy is the town pariah, unable to keep a job or even walk down the street without being barraged with angry words. The mission on this occasion is not only to help the Bensons, but also teach a few lessons in forgiveness and tolerance.
