title: Protected by His Grace
author: Augustine, Grace
description: Rev. James Turner takes his job seriously. As pastor of Lindenport Christian Church, he makes sure his congregation are spiritually fed and that their needs are met, especially during the holidays. Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas Eve services are a mainstay to the Christian faith. At Lindenport Christian Church, it's no different. The Thanksgiving community dinner and decorating committees have the church decked out for the holidays. Pastor James' faith is challenged when a beautiful female parishioner confides in him about her past, putting both of them and their loved ones in danger. The magical beauty and wonder of Christmas Eve is a perfect backdrop for remembering God's continued protection through adversity.
