Leaving Church: A Memoir of Faith - Barbara Brown Taylor

In this moving reflection, a woman explores the tensions of her religious life--the struggle between the church she serves and her own personal relationship with God. nThis beautiful book is rich with wit and humanness and honesty and loving detail....I cannot overstate how liberating and transforming I have found Leaving Church to be. --Frederick Buechner, author of Beyond Words n nThis is an astonishing book.... Taylor is a better writer than LaMott and a better theologian than Norris. In a word, she is the best there is. --Living Church n nBarbara Brown Taylor, once hailed as one of America's most effective and beloved preachers, eloquently tells the moving and delightful story of her search to find an authentic way of being Christian--even when it meant giving up her pulpit. n
