Christmas is a time to celebrate Jesus' birth, but for Hannah and Robert Jessup, there is no joy, only the crushing sorrow of a childless marriage. Despite Hannah's newfound faith--another source of tension with her husband--she feels the pain of infertility keenly. When their unmarried maid offers them her unborn baby, Hannah sees it as an answer to prayer, but Robert refuses and banishes Rosa from their home. Will infertility and a wife's newfound faith crush Robert and Hannah's marriage? How will God answer Hannah’s desperate prayers for a child and her husband’s salvation?
