This book is for women seeking to integrate spiritual, vocational, and sexual dimensions of life. This book weaves women's stories together: the Old Testament story of Esther; the collective stories of all women; the autobiographical story of Marjory Bankson; each reader's personal story through reflective questions. Ths book challenges women to: gather and tell their stories; discover their common themes and honor their diverse experience; claim their bodies as an expression of God's wholeness; integrate the separate streams of work, sexuality, and spirituality; celebrate women's way of growing and creating. - Back cover.
