Providence and Hard Work is a journey back to the golden era of the fifties as seen through the eyes of Caleb Morgan, a handsome, poor farm boy from rural Mississippi. Caleb arrives at the exclusive Marston College in 1955, driving a 1923 Model T pickup. He soon becomes the brunt of everyone's jokes, appearing somewhat slow because of his southern drawl and naivety. Caleb's dream is to play football and become a teacher. He soon falls in love with the campus beauty; however, she wears an engagement ring, and there is a shroud of mystery about her past. Caleb secures employment at the local country club, tries out for football, and begins classes, making a fool out of himself at every turn. Ready to forsake his dreams and return to the cotton fields after becoming the victim of a cruel prank that nearly cost his roommate his life, Caleb gains the attention of Dr. James Marston, the most affluent man in Mississippi and owner of the prestigious country club where Caleb works. Dr. Marston is so impressed with Caleb's integrity, he takes Caleb under his wing and begins making secret plans for Caleb's future. Caleb's fortune begins to change after that day.
