Overview
Sometimes the person you most need is the one least like you.
Kathryn Davies is a bright young woman from a prominent Phoenix family. But after making a leap of faith at a Christian music fest, dropping out of med school, and moving to inner city Chicago, her family all but disowns her.
When Kat discovers SouledOut Community Church, she longs to become a part of the multicultural church family. But her tendency to immediately say whatever sheās thinking steps on the toes of nearly everyone she meetsāespecially Avis Douglass.
Avis has a strong faith, is the principal of one of Chicagoās highest performing elementary schools, and is a founding member of SouledOut. But the countryās economic downturn has thrown both her and her husbandās jobs in question. And Avis hasnāt heard from her youngest daughter in monthsāan estrangement that gnaws at her every day. Where is God in this?
Katās flamboyant zeal for living a āradicalā Christian life is a stark contrast to Avisās more reserved faith. But in Godās timing, the two women discover they need each other in ways neither of them expected.
