Minnietta Millard

A Closer Look: a Theology of the Ordinary Minnietta Millard 1st edition

"Compelling spiritual autobiographies require rare gifts of introspection, intellect, perspective and sensitivity that only an extraordinary artist and author like Minnietta Millard could create. In A Closer Look: A Theology of the Ordinary, readers are invited to re-think their own histories and hopes." Dr. Donald E. Messer, President emeritus, The Iliff School of Theology "Minnietta Millard opens us to the possibility of new discoveries and joy in our own lives as she skillfully blends her mainstream theological education with mystical views, transpersonal theorists, and quantum physicists." Dr. Jane Park Cutler, Licensed Clinical Social Worker "Skilled artist, effective Christian Educator, faithful spouse, devoted mother, brilliant teacher are simple descriptions of this profound life well lived and recorded here. Minnietta Millard offers challenge, direction, hope and inspiration to all." Bishop Rueben Job, Bishop of the United Methodist Church "Minnietta has so gracefully and intimately shared her life, which flows like the mightiest of rivers, that her words will touch and heal the lives of many." Lori Desautels, Special Education Teacher "This book contains wonderful stories which are so often our stories too. We are blessed to be given such a treasure." The Reverend Susan Ruach, General Board of Discipleship of The United Methodist Church
