The Making of a Pearl: Reflections on a Spiritual Journey Jill Roth Spuehler

"God is not like that." The author was in the third grade when she had this epiphany in response to a Benedictine nun describing God as a mean old man. This sudden intuitive realization forever altered her perception of the divine. The eleven vividly described epiphanies recounted here take us through the many layers of the author's spiritual and intellectual growth. She interprets the meaning of these mysterious and extraordinary experiences in retrospect, drawing on formative books and ideas to illuminate how they shaped her life.
