The sequel
to the first season's Christmas episode "Fear Not", "The Feather"
continues the story of a little church's congregation now that
they've seen Monica reveal herself in all her glory. Awed, trying to
figure out what it all means, the congregation is susceptible to
CHARLES, a con artist posing as a preacher. He seizes a feather
which fell from Monica's dove and holds it up to the congregation as
physical proof of the miracle. He's diverting piles of donation
offerings into his own pockets when he's confronted by WAYNE (Randy
Travis)--who turns out to be his brother. Years ago, Charles and
Wayne ran the preacher scam together; Wayne is now a reformed man
and he's determined to stop Charles. The issue is brought to a head
when Joey, who's been ministering to a crack baby that was left in
the church, brings the infant to Charles for a healing. Charles
can't do it, of course, but Monica reveals herself again and reminds
the congregation that they worshipped a feather instead of a King
and their need for fame deafened them to the cries of a little baby.
Charles is humbled and the congregation is once again put on the
right track.
