description: When Alice Greczyns parents felt called by God to exchange worldly employment for heavenly provision they followed their faith into homelessness with five children and a cat in tow. Homeschooled and avowed never to kiss a man until her wedding day Alice had plans to escape the instability by becoming a missionary nurseplans that were put on hold with the opening of an unexpected door: the opportunity to be an actress in Hollywood. What followed was a test of faith unlike any she had prepared for an arranged betrothal she never saw coming and a psychological shattering that forced her to learn how to survive without the only framework for life she had ever known. This unique coming-of-age story takes place within a Christian subculture that teaches children to be martyrs and women to be silent. Revelatory vulnerable and offering catharsis for your own journey through faith and doubt Wayward is a deeply intelligent memoir of soul-searchingand finding the courage to live in your own truth.
