A funny thing happened on the way to Bethlehem...

Joseph has been captured by soldiers. A pregnant Mary is being hunted by the king. She needs to escape Nazareth but doesn't know how. Three hard-drinking strangers claim they can help, but she isn't sure she can trust them. Oh, and let's not forget that the baby-daddy is God, The God, The Great 'I Am'. She's had better days.

Herod The Great has been king of Judaea for thirty years. He is losing his sanity to a disease. He learns shepherds are being visited by angels, bringing tidings of comfort and joy. What the hell are tidings? Herod has no intention of being displaced by some newborn King of the Jews. He sends his soldiers after whoever started these rumors... and after pregnant women, just in case.

Mary is on the run with the Wise Men, a group of arrogant, dipsomaniac consultants. A shepherd boy is leading the team to Bethlehem. She isn't sure her captured husband is even alive. Gabriel, the Herald of God, won't speak. Herod has given the kill order. And God says He is going to let it all play out...

The most rewarding path is never the easy one.
