But God keeps showing up in the least likely of people--a church-loving agnostic, a drag queen, a felonious Bishop and a gun-toting member of the NRA. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As she lives and worships alongside these \"ac­cidental saints,\" Nadia is swept into first-hand en­counters with grace--a gift that feels to her less like being wrapped in a warm blanket and more like being hit with a blunt instrument. But by this grace, people are trans­formed in ways they couldn't have been on their own. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In a time when many have rightly become dis­illusioned with Christianity, \u003ci\u003eAccidental Saints \u003c\/i\u003edem­onstrates what happens when ordinary people share bread and wine, struggle with scripture together, and tell each other the truth about their real lives.
