Jesus Loves Women is the memoir of a girl raised in a
fundamentalist Christian milieu she casts off at a young age and of
her quest to find wholeness and home, spiritually and
sexually.Richard Rohr, O.F.M., Center for Action and Contemplation,
Albuquerque, New Mexico; and author, Falling Upward, puts it this
way: "Finally, the body is getting its due as the normal and gifted
vehicle for Spirit It has taken us a long time to realize the
Christian obvious, and Tricia Gates Brown is making it both more
obvious and thoroughly Christian." In his foreword, James Loney,
Author of Captivity: 118 Days in Iraq and the Struggle for a World
Without War, comments that "Jesus Loves Women is a story of grace,
of how through the healing beauty of the Pacific coast and the
friendship of a Trappist monk, Tricia awakens to a mystical
understanding of God's unconditional love. It is the story of how
one woman finds freedom from the shame, social conventions, and
religious pieties that constrict the lives of all women." Susan
Mark Landis, former Minister of Peace and Justice, Mennonite Church
USA, says that "Like a late night talk with my best friend,
Tricia's book gave me intimate insights into her life, my life, and
God's love for us. Her fresh, rich words draw me to examine my life
and God's movement through it. By openly sharing the secrets we
typically hide, she invites us to give ourselves the grace God does
and to journey toward unreserved living and loving." Brian Doyle,
Author of the novel Mink River, views Brown as "An honest,
piercing, blunt, lyrical, remarkable writer about the endless
chambers of joy and pain in the heart."
