Brief but poignant and hard-hitting. This could’ve been a 5 star read for me but it got a bit preachy for my liking - I can appreciate that the author is clearly deeply rooted in her faith and that the church is an important part of her life, but at a certain point the heavy focus on Christianity takes away from the message. I suppose this may be written specifically for a Christian audience and that it’s highly effective there. For me, not so much. But if you can parse out the religious dialogue there’s much to be gleaned here.
