Writer Anne Lamott Discusses Her Christian Faith

A best selling author, Anne Lamott, Grace (Eventually): Thoughts on Faith took a, what she calls "erratic" path to Christianity. For her, laughter is "carbonated holiness" which she amply uses to express the frailty of the human condition and the grace that gets her through it. "I don't have an interesting doctrine, I don't have an interesting theology. ... I don't understand the triune nature of God or who shot the Holy Ghost. But I have a relationship with Jesus. And the left-wing, progressive activists of Christianity is where I've cast my lot." -Anne Lamott
