They were women of conviction and courage, whose stories inspire the faithful to this day.
To settle her brother's gambling debt, Abigail of Carmel
convinces her boorish lord to marry her. Then exiled by him
to the life of a shepherdess, she grows to love David, the
warrior son of Jesse, who will come face-to-face with her
husband in a senseless warand destroy her hopes of
peace.
