In the story "The Church Social," Emma finally discovers the ultimate recipe that will surely earn her notice in the Forbye Telegraph's "Talk of the Town" column. However, her pursuit is jeopardized when her arch enemy, Nelly Dalton, is accused of thwarting Mrs. Gladstone's effort.
After the preacher's sudden death, in "The Pulpit Committee," Emma conspires to find a way for her husband, Earl, to serve on the pulpit committee. Only after a shocking revelation about the baptismal pond does she get her wish; the search, in all its strangeness, ensues.
In "God Will Clear a Path," the town is on edge after a black man was spotted at the preacher's house. Tensions rise as church members find themselves caught in a power struggle between the preacher and the richest man in Forbye.
Romance isn't the only thing brewing, in "Emma and Earl, a Love Story." Friendship, true love, and a crossword puzzle championship all hang in the balance.
