Since he was a boy growing up in Mississippi, Father Tim has lived what he calls 'the life of the mind.' But then he finds a derelict nativity scene, including a flock of sheep, which has suffered the indignities of time and neglect. Can he give the small assembly new life, restore the camel's ear, repaint every piece? Imagining the excitement in the eyes of his wife, Cynthia, he steps up to the plate, beginning a small journey of faith that touches everyone around him. This audiobook also includes Esther's Gift and The Mitford Snowmen. Unabridged. Read by John McDonough. 6 CDs. 6.5 hours.
