A moving personal memoir and an accessibly reverent meditation on finding faith through unconventional acts of worship.Highly inspiring for anyone seeking solace in our modern world."-Kirkus Reviews(starred review) "Lutheran pastor Scott asks in her exceptional debut: if you strip from church all 'the creeds and the chasubles,' what would be left? The answer, for her, became St. Lydia's Dinner Church in New York City, which she founded in 2008 as a place for queer, marginalized, artistic, nerdy, and often lonely lovers of God to gather for bread, wine, and the words of Jesus . . . Scott's writing is leavened by a healthy dose of self-awareness, and her stories capture the humanity of her mission and community with a light sacramental touch."-Publishers Weekly(starred review).…
