Wonderful, wonderful book! I loved it! This is autobiographical - Sue Monk Kidd tells her own journey and experiences from being a "good" Christian preacher's wife trapped in a patriarchal religion that no longer suited her to finding a broader definition of religion and spirituality and God that worked for her.

This is a book that tells of a journey, one that explores the questions compentently. It's her personal spiritual path which touched me deeply. A keeper with many Ahh hahhh moments.

Haven't finished the book yet, but Sue Monk Kidd has written several fine books I have read, and I think her spiritual leanings are beautifully expressed

I didn't finish this book. It wasn't terrible, the timing is just not right for me.
