No Poor Among Them

At just twenty-two, Dawn longs to give her three young children—and a fourth on the way—an ideal childhood filled with happiness, wonder, and love. Yet it isn’t her tiny home under renovation, mounting medical bills from a high-risk pregnancy, or the family’s material needs that most shake her resolve to remain a stay-at-home mom. The real pressure comes from her own mother, who urges her to live up to her intellectual abilities, earn a degree, and pursue a meaningful career.

​

Caught between her calling at home and her mother’s expectations, Dawn faces the timeless struggle of daughters everywhere: how to claim her own path while preserving a loving bond with her mother. As tensions rise, the relationship fractures into painful estrangement. Will the magic of Christmas provide them with the miracle of reconciliation?”

"The same God that placed that star in a precise orbit millennia before it appeared over Bethlehem in celebration of the birth of the Babe has given at least equal attention to placement of each of us in precise human orbits so that we may, if we will, illuminate the landscape of our individual lives, so that our light may not only lead others but warm them as well."
