JESUS YEAR by Chelsea Lee Williams
TV PILOT
Meet Monica West: hungover, self-medicating, and late for church again. At 33, her so-called “Jesus Year,” she is supposed to be glowing with purpose. Instead, she is stuck in a tug-of-war between the polished pastor’s kid everyone expects and the messy, questioning woman she actually is.
Her father is a nationally known bishop with political ambitions, her firefighter boyfriend is more unfaithful than faithful, and her own body is rebelling in ways she cannot ignore. But Monica’s real battle is not just with men or family or fertility. It is with God. Or at least with the version of Him she was raised on.
Jesus Year is a sharp, irreverent dramedy about faith, family, and freedom, where the real resurrection is not sainthood but finally breaking free from the altar of perfection.
