Description:

By definition, the American sermon delivers spoken words of inspiration, comfort, and enlightenment. Here we have a collection of sermons from famous women writers (Alice Walker and Kathleen Norris) as well as religious leaders speaking from the uniquely feminine vision of the divine. Because women were traditionally relegated to the back row, the sidelines, or even the kitchens of their temples, churches, and religious classrooms, the sermons in this book often speak to those who feel powerless. Calls for feminine solidarity abound, but so do compassionate references to race, homosexuality, poverty, abuse, and violence. While God is a central theme, these women find evidence of their creator in making the bed, baking bread, surviving child abuse, and the births of their children. Read these beautiful words as if they were being spoken aloud, and without a doubt they will reach the contours of your heart and the core of your beliefs. --Gail Hudson
