About this title

About the Author:

Maria Harris was a writer, speaker, and advocate for religious education. A former member of the Sisters of St. Joseph, Maria dedicated her life to teaching and leading Catholic parochial schools. In addition to her grade school work, Harris was a very successful teacher of higher education at Immaculate Conception seminary, Andover Newton Theological School, and Fordham University.

From Library Journal:

Women's spirituality, suggests educator Harris, is a "dance of the Spirit" consisting of seven steps: "Awakening, Discovering, Creating, Dwelling, Nourishing, Traditioning, and Transforming." Each correction: The publisher informs us that the ISBN for Hyam Macco by and Wolf Mankowitz's The Day God Laughed: Sayings, Fables and Entertainments of the Jewish Sages (LJ 6/1/89) is 0-86051-467-6. We regret the error. step has its own chapter here, with introductory guidance in "Centering" (being still) and concluding exercises to help readers connect with insights. Very much an interfaith book (Harris draws on Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism, and Hinduism), this is also quite feminist in a gentle, nonmilitant way and should appeal to questing women with a slightly New Age bent.
