This autobiography recounts a twenty-year quest to experience an
authentic faith in God. It wrestles conventional spirituality in
ways previously unimagined, beginning with the biblical account of
Jesus cursing a fig tree and the power this obscure image held in
the author's mind. The quest spans college years at America's top
evangelical college, his rejection of Christianity, a flight to
Kodiak, hallucinogenic drugs, and a crazy motorcycle trip back to
Alaska during the winter. There he meets a seventeen year old
hippie girl reading Zelda Fitzgerald and they wonder together if
they can fall in love like Zelda and Scott and beat madness. After
an unlikely two-year courtship, they marry, and become Baptist
Christians. They then return to "the lower 48," jumping full force
into the Nashville music industry, and experience the break-up of a
twelve-year marriage as all goes bust -- and finally, a revisiting
from the curse of the fig tree story with fresh meaning and a
hidden revelation.
