Now in a beautiful new companion book, Joyce courageously offers fifty prayers from her personal journal. Rather than presenting an intellectual study or theological debate on the subject of Sophia, her words share a relationship with Sophia that is steeped in life experience and enriched with poetic metaphor. The added touches of quotations from the Wisdom literature, questions for personal reflection, and suggestions for journaling combine to gently nudge seekers toward the discovery of new riches on their spiritual journey.
