WHO I AM

As a high school senior, Caitlin's relationship with Josh takes on a serious tone via e-mail—threatening her commitment to “kiss dating good-bye.” When Beanie begins dating an African-American, Caitlin's concern over dating seems to be misread as racism. One thing is obvious: God is at work through this dynamic girl in very real but puzzling ways, and a soul-stretching time of racial reconciliation at school and within her church helps her discover God's will as never before.
