Writer/journalist Gallagher's book is as much the story of a year in the life of her Trinity Episcopal Church as of her own spiritual development. During this year she struggles with faith and community, a fatal illness in her family, guests in the church soup kitchen, and the efforts of a priest who is a gay man and the church's vestry to decide whether he should be called as their rector.
