Leaving Church: A Memoir of Faith - Barbara Brown Taylor

A very good autobiography from a long-time PECUSA priest. She writes at length about her own faith journey from the beginning through ordination, life as a priest, and life as a former priest. It is an easy read, and while quite enjoyable, goes long on her pre-leaving, and only a chapter or two on post-leaving. She didn't even really leave, only transitions to a non-parochial status - she never renounced her orders.

Taylor writes as a seasoned wanderer, imparting a great deal of wisdom from a traditional Episcopal viewpoint. I haven't read anything else from her, but look forward to her next book. Might even pick up one of her prior ones. Nothing terribly new, but all in all, very well presented. It is her next book that I really look forward to.
