A protestant Latina's evolving spiritual journey. Her difficult, but always humorous and loving, Latino-American Christian upbringing leads to her ultimately powerful embrace of the Christian faith. Raised by her Puerto Rican family in America and in a Spanish-speaking evangelical church, issues of identity, faith, and family traditions were at the forefront of the author's upbringing. With humor and touching tributes, she recounts the clashing and blending of cultures, traditions embraced and rejected, and the unbreakable faith passed from generation to generation. Her narratives celebrate the Latino-American Protestant experience-distinct from Catholics. Her insights on faith, family bonds, struggles, love and joy strike a chord with readers from all cultures.
