Holy Troublemakers & Unconventional Saints is an illustrated book about people of diverse faiths working for more love, kindness, and justice in their corners of the world, even when that means rocking the religious boat. With original portraits from more than two dozen artists and engaging profiles of people from different faiths and different eras, these are stories that inspire, educate, challenge, and encourage. In particular, Holy Troublemakers & Unconventional Saints emphasizes the stories of women, LGBTQ people, people of color, Indigenous people, and others who are too often written out of religious narratives. These stories move us towards more love and a faith that works for the common good of us all.

Starting March 5, we’ll gather on Thursdays at 6pm in the Youth Lounge to grow in our faith and hold space for fellowship, using Holy Troublemakers & Unconventional Saints as our guide.
