When the last thing you want is the one thing you need,
you've got to have a little
faith... Growing up, Ellen Carlisle
was a Christian: she went to Jesus camp, downed stale Nilla
wafers at Sunday school, and never, ever played with Ouija
boards. Now, years later, when infertility prevents her from
giving her ambitious attorney husband a family, she finds
herself on the brink of divorce, unemployed, and living with
her right-wing, Born Again Christian parents in her suburban
New Jersey hometown. There the schools are private, the
past is public, and blessings come in lump
sums.
Then Ellen meets a man to whom she
believes she can open her heart, and she begins to think
that maybe it’s true what they say, that everything happens
for a reason… Until all that was going well starts going
very badly, and Ellen is finally forced to dig down
deep to find her own brand of faith.
