Sixteen-year-old Julie Danner thought she knew exactly what she believed. But when her best friend, Elijah, confesses he is gay, she abandons her conservative religious beliefs and stands beside him. Her courage does not falter even when his father, the pastor of her church, discovers his son’s secret—and preaches about it on Sunday morning. At home, Julie pretends to be the same girl she always has been so her mother won’t worry. At school, her Christian friends ostracize her when she joins the Gay-Straight Alliance.
Luckily, Julie has Finn, a new friend at school who casts himself as her partner in crime when it comes to helping Elijah. He's supportive, kind and funny—but he's also agnostic. Julie vowed never to date a non-Christian, but it's getting more and more difficult to resist her feelings for Finn.
Can Julie’s religion evolve with her changing beliefs? Can she really call herself a Christian if her best friend is gay and her boyfriend isn't a believer? Julie slowly begins to realize that seeking answers is just as important as finding them. And with her friends and family beside her, the journey will never be a lonely one.
