"Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin." --Matthew 6:28
This modern classic is about a black Baptist man (Homer) who comes across a group of German nuns trying to build a church. Eventually, he ends up helping them build for no pay and refusing almost all help.
I liked this story. It kept me interested, although I didn't always like the main character. I know I'm stubborn, but even I don't refuse help when I really need it. I liked that the nuns immediately liked Homer, as if they could read what he was like as soon as they met him. I've never been good at telling what people are like right away. I have to get know them some.
