Publisher's Summary
Rosaria, by the standards of many, was living a very good life. She had a tenured position at a large university in a field for which she cared deeply. She owned two homes with her partner, in which they provided hospitality to students and activists that were looking to make a difference in the world. In the community, Rosaria was involved in volunteer work. At the university, she was a respected advisor of students and her department's curriculum. Then, in her late 30's, Rosaria encountered something that turned her world upside down - the idea that Christianity, a religion she had regarded as problematic and sometimes downright damaging, might be right about who God was. That idea seemed to fly in the face of the people and causes that she most loved. What follows is a story of what she describes as a train wreck at the hand of the supernatural. These are her secret thoughts about those events, written as only a reflective English professor could.

encouraging and challenging
A great story that tackles several issues head on. I really enjoyed that the author read this book given the nature of the topic.

revealing
I love the honesty, the genuineness and the rawness of this book. I was expecting a conversion story but got more. I was like holding a mirror to our church and indeed our own lives and seeing the parts that Christ's light has not been let in.

A surprise!
One of the fastest books I have finished. Found it challenging (in a great way) and very refreshing. Loved having Rosaria read it too because it was read how she intended it read.. Makes all the difference!

Interesting but drawn out.
I'm a Christian and was fascinated by the first couple of chapters describing how this lady came to faith. I learned a lot by hearing how Pastor Ken challenged the author.
The remaining chapters were, in my opinion, a bit whiny and stretched out. They could have been about any Christian.
