What if that person you’ve been trying to keep away from is your best shot at grace today?

…And what if that is the point?

In Accidental Saints, New York Times best-selling au­thor Nadia Bolz-Weber invites readers into a surprising encounter with what she calls “a spiritual but not-so-spiritual life.” Tattooed, angry and profane, this former standup comic turned pastor stubbornly, on occasion hilariously, resists the God she feels known as to serve. But God helps to keep showing up in the slightest degree likely of people—a church-loving agnostic, a drag queen, a felonious Bishop and a gun-toting member of the NRA.

As she lives and worships alongside these “ac­cidental saints,” Nadia is swept into first-hand en­counters with grace—a gift that feels to her less like being wrapped in a warm blanket and more like being hit with a blunt instrument. But by this grace, people are trans­formed in ways they couldn’t have been on their own.

In a time when many have rightly develop into dis­illusioned with Christianity, Accidental Saints dem­onstrates what happens when atypical people share bread and wine, struggle with scripture together, and tell every other the truth about their real lives. This unforgettable account of their faltering steps toward wholeness will ring true for believer and skeptic alike.

Told in Nadia’s trademark confessional style, Accidental Saints is the stunning next work from one of today’s most important religious voices.
