Alex takes the case of a pastor running a homeless shelter who receives an eviction notice from the city just before Christmas, and Whitney agonises over choosing Christmas presents for his three vastly different ex-wives.
As Christmas approaches, a single mother (played by Reba McEntire) struggles to raise her son and keep up the payments on her Oregon ranch, which is difficult since she's heavily in debt. But she's a tough cookie, and proves that a steadfast attitude and an open heart go a long way in surviving the cold hearts and greed of the Scrooges around her.
