Clay Morgan runs a reverend out of Black River because he feels the reverend's presence will eventually lead to local law enforcement. Joe keeps the reverend from being murdered by one of Morgan's thugs. It turns out that the reverend was Parmalee's first arrest as a young ranger. Parmalee sends Eric and Chad to Black River disguised as ministers. The three rangers work with the town's church committee to get a church established, the reverend back and Black River out of Morgan's control.
