Now a New York Times bestselling author, Nadia BolzWeber takes no prisoners as she reclaims the term 'pastrix'(pronounced 'pastriks,' a term used by some Christians who refuse to recognize female pastors) in her messy, beautiful, prayerandprofanity laden narrative about an unconventional life of faith.Heavily tattooed and loudmouthed, Nadia, a former standup comic, sure as hell didn't consider herself to be religious leader materialuntil the day she ended up leading a friend's funeral in a smoky downtown comedy club. Surrounded by fellow alcoholics, depressives, and cynics, she realized: These were her people. Maybe she was meant to be their pastor.Using life storiesfrom living in a hopefulbuthaggard commune of slackers and her unusual but undeniable spiritual calling to her experiences pastoring people from all walks of lifeand poignant honesty, Nadia portrays a woman who is both deeply faithful and deeply flawed, giving hope to the rest of us along the way.Wildly entertaining and deeply resonant, this is the book for people who hunger for a bit of hope that doesn't come from vapid consumerism; for women who talk too loud and guys who love chick flicks; and for the gay person who loves Jesus and won't be shunned by the church. In short, this book is for every misfit suspicious of institutionalized religion but who is still seeking transcendence and mystery.
