A Tender Struggle: Story of a Marriage

Krista Bremer, author of “A Tender Struggle: Story of a Marriage,” will speak to us about her book.  We can learn a lot about ourselves and humanism when we understand why some people are attracted to other world views and religions.  Ms. Bremer will explore her book, and her experiences in her journey toward love and Islam.  Here is an excerpt about the book from goodreads.com:

“Fifteen years ago, Krista Bremer, a California-bred feminist, surfer, and aspiring journalist, met Ismail Suayah, sincere, passionate, kind, yet from a very different world. One of eight siblings born in an impoverished fishing village in Libya, Ismail was raised a Muslim–and his faith informed his life. When Krista and Ismail made the decision to become a family, she embarked on a journey she never could have imagined, an accidental jihad: a quest for spiritual and intellectual growth that would open her mind and, more important, her heart.”
