I edited this anthology of memoir, practical guidance, poetry, family history, and spiritual reflection. Contributions include \u201cMemories of a Black Catholic Childhood,\u201d \u201cWhen the Shepherd Steals,\u201d \u201c\u2018Fail of God\u2019 and Other Misadventures in Deaf Catholic Life,\u201d \u201cThe Scandal of Fecundity,\u201d and \u201cLeaving the \u2018Angry Jesus\u2019 Behind.\u201d It\u2019s an attempt to offer hope and companionship to people who are struggling to stay Catholic (or considering a return to the Church) in spite of many forms of abuse inflicted within Catholic institutions and communities, and guidance to their pastors and loved ones. I don\u2019t know of any other collection that explores not only the diversity of painful experiences within the Church but their common aspects. The message of the book is not, \u201cYou should stay Catholic\u201d\u2013you can find those cases made well elsewhere, for a wide range of personalities and spiritualities\u2013but, \u201cYou can, and you\u2019ll have company on the way.\u201d<\/p>\n
