Message ...

Top angel, Gabriel, picks up his work chit for the day. It reads, 'Destination: Nazareth. Contact: Mary Davidson. Message: God's Holy Spirit will get you pregnant with his Liberator.'

Mary can hardly believe it – she’s a virgin: how’s she to have a baby?!? But she hears him out, realizes the privilege and goes for it. She’s ecstatic. Joe, her fiancé, isn’t! The only sane conclusion: she’s been putting it about. But a second visit from Gabriel persuades Joe to face the flack from the family and look after his love and her miracle child, Jesus.
