In BeBe Winans’ We Three Kings, Bebe plays Lincoln, retired musician turned record store owner, and proud father to the three King sisters, Lydia (Lisa Berry), Gracie (Faith Wright) and Abigail (Bethany Brown). For the first time since their mother’s death, the three estranged King sisters return home for the holidays. Lincoln hatches a plan with family friend, Genelle (Deborah Joy Winans) to bring his girls back together again this Christmas. Living under the same roof and hearing their father sing joyful Christmas melodies sparks old family memories. Holiday love songs and mistletoe are found around every corner, and the sisters end up finding love in the very town they tried so hard to leave behind. It isn't long before the sisters face the facts; life's better when they are together.
BeBe Winans’ We Three Kings is executive produced by DNA Media Group's Derrick Williams, Adriane Hopper Williams and Ngozi Paul along with Breanne Laplante, Rosemary Tarquinio and Bebe Winans. Producing for DNA is Gilles Laplante, with Robert Adetuyi directing from a script by W. Stewart.
