Ruth Christianson is at an unfathomable crossroads in her life. Her husband, the esteemed Pastor Sam Christianson, has just been outed for having an affair with a male prostitute, and they have been exiled from the megachurch they built together in Charleston, South Carolina. With their three children in tow Ruth and Sam attempt to escape the condemnation that follows the very public scandal by disappearing to the small, Missouri farm where Sam grew up. Once there, Ruth must decide whether to maintain her bonds of holy matrimony or walk away from the only man she's ever loved. As she reflects on the events that brought her to this moment in time, Ruth suddenly realizes there is a third much more radical option, but choosing it may well destroy her very soul.
