Laurie a Gudim

Loving the Six-Toed Jesus Laurie a Gudim

An Episcopal priest in a rural Wyoming parish, Sarah Brooks loves her life. Her work, while demanding, nourishes her profoundly, tapping her abundant compassion, faith and creativity. And in her leisure time she is exploring with delight and wonder the vast, formidable, and exquisite wilds surrounding the town in which she lives. But she has been harboring a secret. It began when her bishop misunderstood what she was telling him during her initial interview, and it became an omission in her disclosure to her parish. Now she is feeling increasingly, woefully inauthentic. Not only that, but she finds herself yearning for an intimate relationship. And how will that play out in this sparsely-populated, mostly white, straight hinterland? For Sarah Brooks is a lesbian. This is a story about passion, about community, and about what pulls us out of complacency and challenges us to become better people. The author's love of Wyoming and its quirky inhabitants illumines every page.
