Truth Seeker
$15.49Add to cartCut off from our connection with the divine, humankind is afflicted by a metaphysical anxiety, which is now a global condition. The Truth Seeker is one woman’s journey to try and combat this malaise. Through poetry and prose, Lucy White questions her beliefs and tries to make sense of the secular and the sacred in her search for a connection with that essence of divine love we call God. Meditating on her personal journey led the author to the awareness that we live in a world of polarities between which we ricochet unknowingly. At present the secular outweighs the sacred and the male force outweighs the female force. Balancing these forces could bring peace and harmony to the world. The author espouses a new philosophy, that of Spiritual Feminism, a philosophy that acknowledges and elevates women as wise nurturers connected to the divine, a philosophy that balances the female force equally with the male force. During the writing of the book, Lucy White began to experience a benign energy force that seemed to be tracking her progress. Was God keeping an eye on her work?

Hope In The Holler
$29.00Add to cartFor more than three hundred years, black women have embodied a theology of hope, which has enabled them to overcome a history of abuse and violence. While a theology of hope has been widely discussed in twentieth century theology, it was born in slavery long before Jurgen Moltmann introduced it to America in 1967. Even womanist notions of hope have not explored the theological character of hope in abused black women’s narratives. Crawford argues that hope is the theological construct that moves black women beyond endurance and survival to transformation of their personal and communal realities. This book identifies and analyzes the theological vision of hope voiced within the narratives of enslaved, emancipated, and contemporary black women and brings that vision into discussion with contemporary womanist theologies

When Marian Sang
$19.99Add to cartThe creative team behind Amelia and Eleanor Go for a Ride returns with a picture book biography as understated and graceful as its subject, singer Marian Anderson (1897-1993). Tracing the African-American diva from her beginnings as an eight-year-old church choir wonder (“the pride of South Philadelphia”) through years of struggle to rise above the racism that would delay her debut with the Metropolitan Opera until she was 57, this book masterfully distills the events in the life of an extraordinary musician. Ryan’s narrative smoothly integrates biographical details with lyrics from the gospel songs Anderson made famous: a passage about the budding singer’s longing to perform onstage (“Opera was simply the sun and the moon a dream that seemed too far away to reach”) segues to “He’s got the sun and the moon right in His hands”; “Sometimes I feel like a motherless child…” follows a 2/3 spread of the singer on the bow of a ship bound for Europe, the sun creating a halo effect. Working with a sepia-toned palette, Selznick’s paintings shimmer with emotion, his range of shading as versatile as Anderson’s three-octave voice. Whether depicting her as barely visible beyond the crowds at her famous 1939 concert on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial or in a final scene of her stepping into the spotlight at the Met, the images are striking and memorable (particularly the soulful face of Marian herself as she matures from child to woman). The author’s and artist’s notes, timeline and discography round out this stellar effort. Ages 6-10.

In Justice : Women And Global Economics
$18.00Add to cartThe surprisingly vehement demonstrations at recent meetings of international monetary organizations have alerted people to the dangers of new global economic arrangements. Are there any fundamental standards within economic theory? How can economics and economic proposals best be measured? What does economic justice mean today? Spurred especially by the situation of women in the global household, Ann-Cathrin Jarl in this considerable contribution focuses on promising work in feminist economics and feminist ethics. Jarl articulates feminist critiques of neoclassical economic theory, objectivity in economics, and current understandings of rights, equality, and power. She derives an alternative social theory from feminist ethics, and she lands on provision for basic human needs as the benchmark of economic justice. In her final chapters Jarl offers a theory of economic justice aimed at strengthening the global household and bring the claims of justice to the world of markets.

Women And The Authority Of Scripture
$42.95Add to cartThe theological impact of accepting the absolute authority of biblical scripture is enormous_especially for women who attend and serve churches. But until now, few books have been willing to address this issue head on.
Sarah Lancaster looks at the way women in the church have dealt with the question of scriptural authority and how they can address it in the future. Some women, she says, accept the authority of the Bible without question and stay in church without change of attitude or action. Others deny that the Bible has any authority, completely leaving Christianity in the belief that the Bible and Christian tradition are irredeemably patriarchal. Still others recognize that while scripture is largely patriarchal, it is authoritative for their life of faith.
The Bible possesses a narrative coherence, its story resonating in our own lives. For women, the Bible can continue to “ring true” to their experience, letting them acknowledge scripture’s authority in spite of its problems. The Bible is not about patriarchy; it is about how God is present to us and interacts with us in order to bring us to fullness of life.
Lancaster says that women can criticize those things in scripture that help maintain a patriarchal world without invalidating scripture’s authority. Scripture, she argues, informs, forms, and transforms. With its combination of narrative and feminist theology, Women and the Authority of Scripture brings a powerful new perspective to the doctrine of biblical authority in the contemporary world.

Davis sees spirituality as the realm where girls’ ultimate concerns intersect with their daily ones especially with relationships, lifestyle, and religious conviction.
