One Lie = A Better Life?
How does an atheist end up working in a church? Jan needed a job, the church had an opening, and she pretended to be a Christian to get it. Jan’s life is a mess. She was jilted by the guy whom she thought was “the one,” she was broke, and she had to move in her aunt’s cabin. What could a small lie hurt, if it helped get her life together and back on her feet? All kinds of things can ripple out from a lie, unfortunately, Jan discovers this.
Jan finds the church and the people in it, are radically different than what she had assumed. Even though she thinks writing messages to a non-existent deity is a waste of time, she is shocked to find the prayer requests are all read and cared about. Jan finally finds the perfect boyfriend. Except he works at the church, too, and he expects her to be a Christian. He tells her he can’t be unequally yoked—whatever that means.
This story is modern, fresh and is one of the best books I have read in a long time. I found myself unable to put it down, and you will feel the same way, too! Although Jan can be a bit rough around the edges, this 5-plus star story is told from a Christian viewpoint. You will thoroughly enjoy this fish-out-of-water tale, and I recommend it to older teens and above.
