Southern gal Miranda is an Evangelical Christian with all the social and political beliefs dictated by her church, but when she gets what she's sure is a message from God, she does a 180 and decides to become a surrogate mother for a married gay couple from Boston. It's a weird enough situation as it is, but things get even crazier for Miranda when one of her baby-daddies-to-be decides to come down South for a visit -- and won't leave! ~ Cammila Albertson, Rovi

Intriguing movie that centralizes around the lives of a young woman, Miranda, who believes that it is her calling from God that she become a surrogate mother. Terry and Sandy, a gay married couple, have been trying to find a surrogate mother who would help them, and Miranda decides to answer their hopes (despite her religious beliefs which conflicts with the couple's life choices). The turns of events enables the couple to closely bond with Miranda, her husband Parker, and her sister Lucy. Great cast- A.J. Cook, Orlando Jones, David Sutcliffe, David Moscow, and Sarah Carter. Worth seeing!
