Saving Face is a meditation on the divine face, and the meaning we get from the faces of others as we are trying to find our own. Deeply personal and contemplative, this book originated in a time of rising from disillusionment while still aching for a church. Today the church is in a state of transition. We see many leaving and deconstructing from harm, hypocrisy, abuse of power, and the absence of Christ and his love. It is a time of revealing. But Christ is not absent.

Some things happening in the church these days should provoke our anger. It's racked with scandals of fraud, abuse, cover-up. It's embroiled in racism, misogyny, marginalization, and hatred. The truth is that we have to fight to love Christ's church. Many of us are left wondering what kind of hope can the church offer if its leaders will not care for its wounds, admit their complicity, and move toward true reconciliation with God's people.
