A struggling Baptist minister named Henry Biggs feels overwhelmed by his church's financial problems and his failing marriage to his choir singer wife, Julia. Amidst his desperation, Henry prays for divine intervention, and an angel named Dudley comes down to Earth to help. As Dudley starts involving himself in their lives, he not only assists Henry with his church duties but also begins to rekindle the joy and faith in the community. Julia, however, finds herself drawn to Dudley's kindness and charm, leading to complications as Henry notices the growing bond between his wife and the angel.

Henry’s problems intensify as he battles with property developer Joe Hamilton, who wants to take over the church's land. Dudley's presence becomes both a blessing and a source of tension, causing Henry to question his own faith and abilities. With Christmas approaching, the congregation must come together to save their church, and Henry must repair his relationship with Julia. Dudley's mission becomes clear as he strives to bring about a renewal of hope and love within the community while ensuring that Henry and Julia rediscover their affection for each other.
