This book honors her contributions by addressing issues at the creative "edge" of the discipline.

This carefully researched book traces the history of fasting and abstinence in theChristian tradition, examining it from every point of view. It is both a story of discovery and a meditation full of information.

A nurturing and hopeful collection of practices to help an emerging generation of Christians reconnect to their faith, find inner healing, and build spiritual community.

The most important journey in life is the journey inwards, to the depths of our own being. It is a journey we are all invited to make. It takes us beyond words and images into silence.

Four Views on Christian Spirituality presents the aims and emphases of four major traditions of Christian spirituality: Eastern Orthodox, Roman Catholic, evangelical, and liberal Protestant. Including critiques of each tradition by opposing contributors, this book provides a useful resource for further discussion and study.
