Home Is Always the Place You Just Left: A Memoir of Restless Longing and Persist

Born into a devout Christian family, Betty Smartt Carter spent her childhood chalking Bible verses on the sidewalk and declaring that she would be a missionary.

With relentless honesty and a good dose of humor, Carter takes us on her journey toward faith -- a journey full of tears and joys, setbacks and small triumphs, moments of grace and times...

A New Friend for your bookshelf

I would reccommend this book for anyone in their 20's or 30's especially, anyone who has ever felt alone, anyone who has ever almost wanted their parents to catch them doing something they shouldn't - just so they could talk, and anyone who has ever asked "does God even care that I exist?"Betty Smartt Carter has my respect and admiration for sharing so courgeously! This book deserves to be read! I wish I was rich enough to stand on a street corner and give copies away! Don't miss it.

I can't say enough

This is a book that I would recommend to just about anyone. Not only is Betty Carter down-to-earth, she is incredibly funny! I don't normally laugh out loud while reading, but several times I found myself shaking in my chair trying to contain my laughter.Her honest account of her own struggles proves that there is hope for all of us.
