It’s a sunrise service in Cricket County, and the hillbilly Taylor clan is hosting it in their front yard! The bucolic pre-dawn darkness is interrupted by the arrival of their highbrow, opportunistic city cousins. They’re forever after the coal mines and oil fields the Taylors inherited from their late Uncle Zeke, and this year is no exception for these money-grubbing kinfolk, as they surreptitiously search for a new “treasure” Grandma supposedly found. But when the sunrise service begins, thoughts quickly turn to the true meaning of Easter as everyone, including the city bunch, shares what the Resurrection means to them. When Grandma’s treasure is revealed, greedy hearts soften. More homespun theology from these irresistible characters from the holler. Fun but appropriately reverent.
