Welcome to Litsy!

If there is a god, and he or she wanted to deliver an important message to the world, Leah Wagner would seem a peculiar choice of messenger. A middle-aged widow and mother of two, Leah is not religious and doesn't attend church. Her life is patently uneventful. God speaks in mysterious ways, however. Or so Leah claims upon emerging from a coma after a devastating car accident nearly kills her. The message is simple: “God loves us and wants us to love each other in the same way. God wants us to embrace humility and selflessness instead of acquisition and achievement.” The fallout from the message is much more complex. Leah's world turns upside down as she evaluates the validity of her own claim and her responsibility to be the messenger to a world ruled by people more interested in power than belief. An intriguing, intelligent exploration of doubt, belief, and the human tendency toward precognitive conclusion in the face of evidence,The Message? is perfect for those who want to be both entertained and challenged by the books they read.
