Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:"If you're looking for divine inspiration or a graceful way to reaffirm your faith, this collection of sermons and talks from women priests and poets, rabbis and canons, ministers and professors may light your path. Many of these writings are inspired by Scripture and others grew out of the authors' individual searches for God. While traditionally women have played marginal roles in church leadership, this collection shows that in today's world the voices of religion increasingly are feminine. Here are Kathleen Norris, Lauren Artress, Joan E. Hemenway, Alice Walker and others, lifting their voices to heaven and, as Barbara Bedway writes, building 'bridges to God.'" --Chicago Tribune Synopsis:This collection of 35 sermons by women authors, ministers, rabbis, priests and poets explores the question: How do women speak to God, to each other, to the world?
