Encouraged by her priest to write a column for the weekly bulletin, Clayvon Harris reluctantly begins writing about church history and other practical matters. However, her writings quickly evolve into a call to examine the issues of faith with which she is personally struggling. The reflections become a roadmap of both her spiritual doubt and spiritual development over a year that yields both personal challenges and indictments of religious officials in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. Collected here, the topics range from guilt and gossip to dreams and disappointment, from the priest scandal to the power of prayer. Topical, deeply intimate and very readable, Year of Trial, Year of Grace – A Catholic’s Search for Faith offers a contemporary perspective on Catholicism that both proclaims and questions the role of faith in everyday life, and in the cultivation of a more personal and practical relationship with God. This is a book of encouragement and support for anyone who has, at one time or another, struggled with faith and acceptance.
