Like A River

People change. We grow and learn and evolve, but sometimes we refuse to consider that truth might be 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; and both love their families and God. However, their dads€ different approaches to truth and the meaning of €œthe 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; it is a story about friendship. It is a look at how varying interpretations of truth inspire divergent responses from two trusting, searching girls. Life, friendship, truth: all are like a river.
