Though wide-eyed and accepting as a girl, Steinke left the faith in her teenage years; scene by breathtaking scene, she vividly describes the angst, embarrassment, uncertainty, and joy of her decades of on-and-off piety. Emotional, wise, and beautifully crafted, Easter Everywhere is a rare literary accomplishment, a feat of storytelling and personal insight.

It's an inspiration.”—Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love “Steinke unflinchingly recounts years of disillusionment in her stumble back toward faith.” —Entertainment Weekly Product ReviewsProduct Q&AFind Related Products
