With his dreams of a professional baseball career shattered, new associate
pastor Craig Houston lands his first position at the Parkside Community Church
in Fairmont. But Craig harbors an unsettling concern. He questions whether he
ever received “the call” to the ministry and fears he will fail his
congregation. As he is drawn into the community, he meets other dreamless
souls—a harried waitress who gave up her college aspiration to care for her
fatherless son and her invalid grandmother; a bride whose princess-perfect life
holds a guilty secret; a pregnant teenager who is looking for work and
temporarily living in a tree house that overlooks Mulberry Park, and a
middle-age couple who run a community soup kitchen.
Guided by the wisdom of a homeless man named Jesse, Pastor Craig and the others
begin to realize that things aren’t really what they seem in Fairmont. And
that dreams, like dandelion seeds scattered in the wind, can take flight and
blossom in unexpected ways.
