Season 1 covers a scandal involving Jesse and his other friends (that are also members of or employees of the church) being recorded doing very ungodly things, as well as an ongoing conflict between Jesse's son Gideon Gemstone and the rest of the family. Also paralleling this larger conflict is the presence of their uncle and Aimee-Leigh's brother, Baby Billy Freeman, and his attempts to revise his musical and religious ministry career.
