From what I remember this tv-movie made me feel warm and fuzzy during the Christmas season. John Denver plays a single father with a pre-teen daughter. If think John Denver plays a church pastor since there is an ending scene where he addresses a congregation. John Denver thanks the congregation for rescuing his daughter from a snowstorm and says the true meaning of Christmas is sharing God's love. Overall beautiful scenery, inspirational message and much better than the plethora of Christmas holiday TV movies.
