About this ebook
Kate was raised in the Holy Divine Church—it influenced everything from her homeschooling to her handmade clothes. But ever since her unbelieving father’s death last year, she has suspected that there’s more to life than memorizing scripture.
Taking advantage of their move to a new town, Kate—to her devout mother’s horror—quits Holy Divine. She joins the cross-country team, wears shorts to public school, and even tries a traditional Christian church. As she struggles to come to terms with her father’s death and her mother’s unquestioning beliefs, Kate discovers there’s a big difference between religion and faith—and that the two don’t always go hand in hand.

I first read this book when I was in middle school. It came into my life just when I was starting to doubt my own religious upbringing. I remembered almost everything about it except the title and the author. I spent the last decade trying to find it again with only Google searches of what I remembered of the plot. A kind soul on Name That Book helped me find it, and I could not be more grateful. I have just finished rereading it for the first time in almost 20 years and if anything I love it more than I did then..
