description: Theophilus Henry Simmons is young, single, sexy, and just about the finest black man any wishful mother and daughter have ever seen in Charleston, Mississippi. He's also a pastor. And when he starts courting the quiet, homespun Essie Lee Lane-and she accepts his marriage proposal-a few of the church folk decide to teach Essie what it really means to be a pastor's wife, and show her how little she knows about them. But as Theophilus gains prominence in his congregation, Essie evolves from a mousy parishioner into an independent and Godly woman. Now sporting an afro and driving her new Cadillac, Essie teaches the church folk what it really means to stand by your man-and your beliefs.
