Check out what happened in Honk for Jesus. Save Your Soul.!

As the dust settled on Wander to Greater Paths, Pastor Lee-Curtis Childs and his wife, First Lady Trinitie Childs, found themselves scrambling to salvage what remained of their once-thriving Southern Baptist megachurch. The scandal surrounding Lee-Curtis' alleged indiscretions had left a trail of destruction in its wake, prompting a mass exodus of congregants and forcing the couple to shut down operations. In an attempt to revive their fortunes, they hired a documentary crew to chronicle their comeback, with Easter Sunday serving as the target reopening date.

Meanwhile, the Sumpters - Keon and Shakura - were busy laying the groundwork for their own church, Heaven's Home. While drawing inspiration from the Childs' playbook, they made it clear that their approach would be distinctly different. Word was spreading about their own brand of spirituality, one that had attracted many former followers of Wander to Greater Paths. As Easter Sunday loomed, the stakes were high - would the Sumpters succeed in attracting a loyal following, or would the Childs manage to stage a remarkable comeback?

As Trinitie navigated the treacherous landscape of their new reality, she stumbled upon an old acquaintance who couldn't help but rub it in - the former congregant made no secret of her intention to defect to Heaven's Home on Easter Sunday. Later, the couple received an ultimatum from their lawyer: settle with the young men at the center of the scandal or risk facing further legal action. For Lee-Curtis, the temptation was too great to resist - he saw an opportunity to exploit the documentary crew's sound recorder, Basil, making a pass that was promptly rebuffed when Basil revealed his commitment to his boyfriend.

In the midst of this turmoil, the Childs' "devout five" congregants remained steadfast in their loyalty, refusing to abandon ship despite the controversy surrounding their pastor. Their Wednesday sermons continued uninterrupted, with the baptism ceremony serving as a poignant reminder of the church's troubled past. As Easter Sunday drew near, it was clear that only one outcome would be acceptable - the Childs' church would rise from the ashes like a phoenix, or Heaven's Home would supplant them as the spiritual epicenter of town. The clock was ticking; which way would fate swing?

As the Childs attempt to negotiate a change in the Sumpters' grand opening date, a visit to their forthcoming Heaven's Home church reveals an unwavering commitment to sticking to Easter. Undeterred, Lee-Curtis (character name) plots to outmaneuver them by reopening Greater Paths two weeks prior, determined to seize the momentum before the Sumpters can capitalize on the holiday. With a flair for showmanship, Trinitie is tasked with holding a sign in the street, instructed to "shake it for the Lord" and entice passersby to honk their horns in support. However, this endeavor is soon disrupted by a scornful woman who lambasts Lee-Curtis (character name) and his wife for their actions.

Meanwhile, Lee-Curtis reconnects with a former congregant who has since been incarcerated, a stark reminder of the complexities they face. In an effort to boost morale and attract attention, Trinitie is instructed to adorn her face with white mime paint, using "worship miming" to draw in crowds. However, this initiative is soon upstaged by a car that careens into the middle of the street, causing a traffic jam. As the situation unfolds, it becomes clear that the passenger is none other than Khalil, the victim who has refused to accept the settlement. Initially distraught, he ultimately breaks character, mocking Lee-Curtis (character name) for his attempts to overcome the scandal.

Trinitie returns to the church, her frustration boiling over as she confides in Anita Bonet, the documentary director. She airs her grievances about her marriage and the congregation's sudden abandonment of them due to the scandal. When asked by Anita why she won't leave Lee-Curtis (character name), Trinitie flatly rejects the inquiry, dismissing Anita's true motivations for creating a documentary that seeks to "understand" their story.

As Greater Paths reopens two weeks before Easter, Lee-Curtis and Trinitie stand at the entrance, hopeful but ultimately met with disappointment. Only a devoted handful of congregants materialize, while a Mustang drives up to the lot only to make a sudden U-turn. It becomes clear that the Sumpters have also accelerated their opening date for Heaven's Home, intentionally giving Easter's spotlight to the Childs, thereby securing a resounding success and drawing in numerous new members.
