"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
