Sensible Shoes: A Story about the Spiritual Journey
À propos de cet ebook
Four Strangers, One Retreat Center, A Story of Transformation
Sharon Garlough Brown tells the moving story of four strangers as they embark together on a journey of spiritual formation:
Hannah, a pastor who doesn't realize how exhausted she is.
Meg, a widow and recent empty-nester who is haunted by her past.
Mara, a woman who has experienced a lifetime of rejection and is now trying to navigate a difficult marriage.
Charissa, a hard-working graduate student who wants to get things right.
You're invited to join these four women as they reluctantly arrive at a retreat center and find themselves drawn out of their separate stories of isolation and struggle and into a collective journey of spiritual practice, mutual support and personal revelation.
Along the way, readers will find:
- Key spiritual practices that they can take into their own lives,
- A cast of characters that any reader can find themselves in, and
- Tangible support for the deeper life with God.
If you want to travel this journey with others, you will find a group study guide and book club resources at www.sensibleshoesclub.com.
