This book is filled with wise guidance for that journey: gripping personal stories that invite reflection; deep prayers that stir the soul; solid spiritual exercises that lead to greater integrity. The authors, who demonstrate a great sense of compassion, have taken threads of grief and anger and woven them into a powerful invitation to new hope.Jim Bacik, Ph.D.Theologian, Pastor Corpus Christi University Parish Toledo, Ohio"The opportunity for spiritual growth abounds in the wake of crisis.

Jim Bacik, Ph.D.Theologian, Pastor Corpus Christi University Parish Toledo, Ohio "The opportunity for spiritual growth abounds in the wake of crisis. This book confronts our present day institutional breakdowns with a process that seeks not to fix the problems but to transcend them. Using personal dialogue and inner reflection, the reader is led to interior depths where the Spirit heals and transforms. The result is a New Creation with a consciousness that is both feminine and masculine in equal balance." Joan Hauser, M.Div. Few in our society are untouched by abuse and the grief it holds. The Spirit is challenging us to look at ourselves, to delve more deeply into our stories and to share what we learn with others in a co-creative response.
