The main character of the series is Mike Weber, a former rocker and widowed Episcopalian priest who lives as a single father in Royal Oak and leads a church there. His four children are fourteen year old Kenny, eleven year old Andy, eight year old Meredith and Fred, the youngest of the family. Weber's ecclesiastical community includes Bishop Peter Jerome, who disapproves of Mike Weber's unconventional approach, Todd Tucker, who has just graduated from the seminary, and Mike's assistant, Nancy Boyd. The plots of the individual episodes result from situations in the family, the church and among the congregation.
