Eyes to See - Episode 2

When a talented singer-songwriter resorts to self-harm, McKenna sets Rahab up as a guidance counselor at the young woman's school to unearth the root of the problem.
Force of Habit - Episode 5
McKenna aids Courier Jacob in helping a drug addled reporter who lands on the streets after selling out her sister for a fix. Meanwhile, McKenna's father fights his own substance abuse demons, trying to cope with the loss of his wife.
No Greater Love - Episode 6
