I have a book recommendation for you. It's called The Femine Face of God
-- The Unfolding of The Sacred in Women. The authors are Sherry Ruth
Anderson & Patricia Hopkins.
The Title is somewhat mis-leading. It is not about God in the traditional
sense. It is about spirituality. It has stories from women from all
different types of spiritual backgrounds - from budhists, to native american,
jewish to christian. From ex-nuns to women who believe that trees and rocks
are an essential part of spirituality.
I thought of you when I first started reading it because you were talking
about how the Bible was written by men for men in a generation where women were
considered little better than chattel. Something I have often thought about
in the past. This book addresses that.
I am struggling with it cause it is "to out there" for my traditional
mindset. But I thought you might like it.
in faith,
