Growing up, I often heard the saying "the truth will set you free". If only Pastor believed it. You will yell, sigh, shake your head and even cry. This emotion invoking book is on my list of favorites for 2021. It may trigger those who have experienced similar issues within the church. Keep reading, it's worth it.

I have very mixed reactions to J C Anderson's novel looking at dysfunctional families and churches. Some of the book borders on pornography, other parts are illustrative of God's grace toward very hurting people. The two pictures do not mix well; I have a difficult time recommending this author's attempt to blend these images. There may be an audience for which this book would be a good match, I cannot think of one. I give this book one-star.
