This book just goes to show you how God specializes in "broken things" (i.e. flawed humans).
"Traveling Mercies" is easily the best (by far) of all 3 books Anne Lamott has written on her faith journey.
Yes, she can be self-absorbed (can't we all be?); yes she's a Liberal (so what?), but her wonder over the love of God and her adoration over Jesus once she finally "gets it" is truly beautiful. She gathered the jagged shards of her life... the alcohol and drug abuse, the bulimia, the abortions and other issues, etc. and placed them into God's Hand and gets....what? LOVE AND FORGIVENESS. That's what it's about. And it's ALWAYS incredibly beautiful.
Remember please that God enters EACH of us through a private door. The journey is intensely personal for each one of us.
And also remember that Jesus was a Radical and a Revolutionary in his day.... he hung out at the "back of the line" with society's outcasts.
So, before you cast stones at the liberal writer from Northern California.... read the book.
It's refreshing, hilariously funny, and profoundly moving.

Loved this book! Readable and real; laughed out loud and cried silently. Countless passages with poignant statements that capture the imagination. A real treat.

I loved this book so much, I bought several copies to give to friends. Her humor shows through the further you go... she writes in a way that makes her seem like someone you want to know. Just loved it.

I love Anne Lamott. I use her book, Bird by Bird in my writing classes taught through Santa Monica college community education. And this book is filled with her truth and she is both reverent, very funny and can also bring tears to your eyes. She can write about how to celebrate her son's birthday or her hair and have you engaged and loving her to pieces. Thank you, Anne for sharing the deep and humorous truth of your heart and soul. This is why I read (and write.)

"A Very Inspiring Read"

Traveling Mercies: Some Thoughts on Faith by Anne Lamott is a book about one women's obsession with alcohol, drugs, food and relationships. She has faced many forms of anxiety in her life and shares them with her readers. Through all her trials and errors she tries to embrace her faith and her religion. A very inspiring read with a spiritual awareness.
After you read this book it may be a good time to consider reading my book entitled "The Enlightenment, What God Told Me After One Million Prayers, a Message for Everyone" (See Profile Above)
