The Bishop's Wife

Family comedy drama about an angel who assumes human form to help a bishop repair his marriage and build his dream cathedral.

As Christmas approaches, newly appointed young bishop Henry Brougham prays for guidance when he needs funds for his dream of a new cathedral. What he gets is the down-to-earth Dudley, who announces himself as the bishop's new assistant and immediately sets to work, but a new cathedral is not what Dudley has in mind.
