They say religion is a personal and private affair. But when a woman believes in a tradition, she has a relationship to that faith beyond her sacred space. Religious traditions' historically poor treatment of women has lead many to question why they believe. How has their tradition either embraced and enlightened, or excluded and confined women throughout history? Her Voice, Her Faith presents the personal and historical perspectives of women who not only live their faith day to day, but who also know their religion's history with women in general.

This is a book about the transformative power of Love: How one woman's search for the Divine led to an unlikely, yet life-altering, love affair. Katherine is a woman drawn to a life of Service after confronting the hollowness of dutifully following the proscribed paths of good marriages and an insular suburban life. Frank was an abused and neglected boy who followed the only path he knew- one of gangs, crime, and eventually, prison. When they meet, this improbable pair experience a surprising spiritual connection. Katherine's generous spirit guides Frank along his path of self-discovery, enabling him to transcend his role as a hardened thug and emerge from prison eager to re-discover and contribute to society. Frank, in turn, introduces Katherine to a genuinely devoted, unconditional love. Follow Katherine and Frank's journeys, follow their paths to the discovery of the Divine in each other, in loved ones, in the world around them. Ultimately, this is a book about love, about the bonds that infuse our lives with meaning and grace.
