Two years have passed since the terrible car accident that
took the life of John Baxter’s daughter, Erin, her husband
and three of their four daughters. Prompted by grief, and
missing his daughter, John has invited a stranger for
Christmas Eve dinner—Kendra Bryant, the transplant recipient
who now has Erin’s heart.
In light of their father’s idea, Ashley and her brother Luke
don’t think it’s right. They want to protect their
ten-year-old niece, Amy—the only surviving member of the
accident. But John is determined and believes meeting this
woman is something his deceased daughter would want.
At the same time, Maddie West, the eighteen-year-old
daughter of Brooke Baxter West, is praying for meaning this
Christmas. Could she find it in a newfound friendship with a
boy she never expected to see again? Maddie believes in
miracles, especially at Christmastime, but this is a stretch
even she can’t imagine.
Meanwhile, Kendra Bryant has been struggling these past few
years to find purpose in the tragedy that gave her a second
chance. She believes the invitation to see the Baxters and
witness their unwavering faith in God can instill peace and
happiness back into her life.
Heartwarming and touching, filled with love and redemption,
A Baxter Family Christmas brings together two families in
the aftermath of loss and in the midst of an unfolding love
story, all with the help of one very special child.
