Like a River

What if you had to face the possibility that everything you had once been told and believed was absolute truth, might not be so simple, so immutable? What if you had to confront the possibility that truth was less like a rock and more like a river, changing, altering course, welcoming tributaries from varied sources. Rachel and Kathy have plenty in common. Both are the eldest daughters of pastors, both are intelligent and thoughtful, both love their families and God. However, their dads' different approaches to truth and the meaning of "the gospel" lead the girls in separate directions as they deal with growing up and faith and their places in the world. This is not a typical story of preachers' kids rebelling; rather it is a look at how varying interpretations of truth inspire divergent responses from two trusting, searching girls.
