  • Resumen

  • Just for the holidays – from Playful World Ministries! The Story: What begins as a typical, predictable... okay - boring Christmas for Gary and Caroline Harbin is utterly shattered by a surprise visit from Gary's long lost mother, Maddie, who's been AWOL for six years! Needless to say, she's traveling with more than a little baggage! But it gets worse! She's accompanied by her friend Morey Greene - a Las Vegas comedian! But it gets worse! Turns out Morey is much more than a friend! Could it get any worse? Gary wants answers! What's his mother doing - chumming around with a Las Vegas, eh, comedian? And how could Morey actually know more about Christmas than they do? Is this some kind of joke? And why is Gary's mom happier than she's ever been? Plus: We've added some behind the scenes interviews with Sandy Brownlee, writer and creator of this, eh, "unorthodox" Christmas caper! Throw in a little food for thought from the Brownlees - and we pray your holidays will be a bit more meaningful! AND: Find out how you can become part of our Playful World Ministries!
