Kat Davies is suddenly wondering if her good deed was a bad idea.
Kat may be new in her faith, but shes embraced the more radical implications of Christianity with reckless abandon. She invited Rochellea homeless motherand her son to move in the apartment she shares with two other housemates. And shes finally found a practical way to channel her passion for healthy eating by starting a food pantry at the church.
Her feelings for Nick are getting harder to ignore. The fact that hes the interning pastor at SouledOut Community Church and one of her housemates makes it complicated enough. But with Rochelle showing interest in Nick as a father-figure for her son, their apartment is feeling way too small.
But not everyone thinks the food pantry is a good idea. When the woman she thought would be her biggest supporter just wants to pray about it, Kat is forced to look deeper at her own motives. Only when she begins to look past the surface does she see people who are hungry and thirsty for more than just food and drink and realizes the deeper significance of inviting them to come to the table.
