It should not be this difficult to serve in the local church. Gena does a phenomenal job of exploring how it is and how it was while wrestling with what it should be. This is a deep dive of exploration and curiosity intertwined with deep reverence and yearning to live a life worthy of the calling to which she has been called. GET THIS BOOK! - Gaila
