Five-time Grammy-winning recording artist Amy Grant stars in this hourlong unscripted series, in which she leads a team of experts to a small town to "grant" wishes to help make the hopes and unbelievable dreams of deserving people come true. Some of their deeply personal and heartwarming stories are shared as Grant and her team transform these hopes into life-changing reality. The full spectrum of wishes ranges from paying tribute to an unsung hero to helping a despairing family in the grip of a loved one's life-threatening medical crisis.
