Summary "A woman about to turn 30 and dealing with health challenges finds that she wants to reconnect with faith, just not with the religion she was raised in. She decides to visit 30 different faith traditions before she turns 30, and finds that her journey encompasses more than just visiting different houses of worship"-- Provided by publisher.
When untreatable chronic illness forced Riley to her metaphorical (and physical) derriere on her birthday, Reba realized that even if she couldn't fix her body, she might be able to heal her injured spirit. In a yearlong journey she visited thirty religions, from Amish to Scientology, and discovered she didn't have to choose religion to choose God-- or good.
