What is The Secrets of Leaven about?
30-year-old Thomas Whitman has life where he wants it: a fascinating new girlfriend, a scholarship for excellence in ancient Greek, and a year left in seminary before a bright future as a progressive pastor. But life has other plans. Soon dark questions plague Thomas that can't be explained by the religion he's grown up with. A horrible tragedy in Guatemala makes Thomas doubt a loving God, and his faith in family crumbles when he discovers his trusted uncle has been hiding a disturbing ancestor for years. Confused and despairing, Thomas is catapulted into a new reality when he encounters the Society of Leaven, an ancient sect of Jesus-loving radicals who've been subverting Empire and making holy mischief for two thousand years. Trusting his guide Paloma - a Zen meditation teacher who is far more than he seems - Thomas jumps in with these desert hermits, savvy ex-cons and joyful anarchists, all irresistible revolutionaries who practice a Way he never heard about in Sunday School.
