Prayers to Sophia : A Companion to the Star

With many prayers straight from the personal journals of Joyce Rupp, "Prayers to Sophia" aids readers in reaching new spiritual depths through the exploration of feminine images of the Divine. Vulnerable and instructive in equal amounts, this book of meditative prayers offers fifty entries that include a verse from biblical wisdom literature and conversation starters for women's book groups.
