“This is a sweet-spirited book, but also quietly devastating, because the voices she features of young people on the margins, routinely harmed by Christian Americans, have such sad stories to tell. I highly recommend this book.”

David P. Gushee –
Professor of Christian Ethics & Director of the Center for Theology and Public Life at Mercer University
President of the American Academy of Religion and the Society of Christian Ethics.

“In the best of ways, I forget that Dr. Cassie Trentaz is White and that she’s a Christian. No one particular reason. She’s just that transcendent of a person which makes her work all that much more important. Unlike many contemporary books and films that seem to take a majority-cultured quick and agenda’d look into the concerns and cultures of “others”, Dr. Trentaz’s work is a slow-paced, pliable gaze into not just the lives of her subjects but into their thoughts, feelings, experiences and resolves. She invites people to share who they are and then listens in a way that makes you want to find someone or be that someone who does the same. If we all could listen and tell the story of others so well, what an inspired civilization we would be. I find her work honest, sincere, revealing and immediately useful leaving me with a sense of being honored, awakened, informed and hopeful.”

Michelle Lang – Artist, Minister, and founder of The Art of Tough Talks.
