About this title

Synopsis

For as long as she can remember, Annie Adams has had one deep desire – to be the pastor of a church. And for as long as she’s had that dream, people have told her, “You can’t be that.” But at Covenant Baptist Church, Annie finds a group of bold, forward-thinking worshippers who share her vision of inclusiveness and who are willing to work with her to discover what the church should look like today. While serving her new congregation, Annie struggles to balance the possibility of romance with her ministry. But the demands of serving a congregation leave her little time or energy for a romantic relationship, even though there are two men who seem interested. The first in the Covenant Congregation Series, this award-winning novel introduces characters who strive, both individually and as a group, to resolve real-life issues in their daily lives and in their faith.
