This is basically a rehash of post-Barney Fife, color seasons of The Andy Griffith Show, with Andy a preacher instead of the sheriff. Jack Dodson (Howard Sprague) even has a minor role, and he's just as lifeless here. A small Kansas town is plagued by a decades-old feud between two families, which spreads to the politics and the church. Andy deals with that mess, as well as trying to fix up the church and buy a new organ. A subplot involving ghosts in the local cemetery has potential, but it's not developed. It all takes place on the familiar Universal back lot.
