STUMBLING TOWARD GOD traces a woman's spiritual search with an unusual twist - from an "atheist who prays" to unorthodox membership in two contrasting churches: Unitarian and Episcopal. In the second edition of her forthright memoir, McGee shares new adventures on her spiritual quest, culminating in personal encounters with a God of love. An honest, satisfying read for anyone questioning or seeking a spiritual path.
