Seventeen year old Sunny McKibbon is twisted around her busy life that she has no time for God or Bible Study. Instead, she tackles the job of babysitting seven year old Tommy with a lisp. Because of his lisp, he's often underestimated and looked down upon, so Sunny acts like a friend to him. When the annual Christmas musical rolls around this year, both are intent on receiving the parts they want. Sunny gets hers, Tommy doesn't. Although he gets a tiny part, with barely any lines, he just grins and bears it, even though it hurts. As Sunny watches him, she is inspired by him and her faith slowly begins to peak as Christmas changes not only the decorations outside, but the hearts of two people.
