Book Details

Growing up in a Christian home and attending private schools kindergarten through college meant being surrounded by people who held similar beliefs, upbringing, and skin color. When AmyRose finally leaves this Christian comfort zone, she begins living, conversing and working alongside people with entirely different world views and experiences. She begins to question all she grew up believing. In this unique and eclectic collection of stories, Tomlinson writes throughout four years of work and travel. From the beginning pages, written through the eyes of a conservative Christian missionary in East Africa, to the final stories sewn with doubt, a great Truth is discovered. To love God, to love people, to allow doubt—to wonder is the best chance we have at finding Hope.
