"""They are priests and the spouses of priests, they are mothers and daughters, they are pastoral leaders offering their wit and wisdom, and fellow pilgrims sharing their struggles and doubts. And the stories my sisters share in these pages are poignant, inspiring, moving, and, above all, real. Come spend some time with Kelly, Mary, Samantha, and Melissa. Whoever you are and wherever you are on your own journey as a beloved child of God, you will count yourself blessed to be in their company."" --Michael B. Curry, presiding bishop of The Episcopal Church ""Clergy are trained to hone listening ears and hearts as they tend to the people in their care, and it is rare to glimpse the sometimes intimate and interior moments of grace in their spiritual lives. Grace in the Rearview Mirror offers exactly that. To the very end, this book reminded me that looking back to see God's grace at work helps me to step boldly into the future with the assurance that God will be there."" --Jennifer Baskerville-Burrows, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Indianapolis ""Grace in the Rear View Mirror is steeped in Scripture and theology from four seasoned priests while evoking sensory experiences of everyday life and death, plus a generous helping of humor. I wish this book had been around when I was discerning ordination as a young woman. An excellent choice for church book studies or retreats."" --Elizabeth Felicetti, author of Unexpected Abundance: The Fruitful Lives of Women Without Children ""Every life has its moments--from challenges to achievements. Reading these moments with a deep sense of faith is the achievement of this remarkable book. Each vignette is manageable and moving. Reflection questions are provided. The result is a book that will invite you to read your own life--to see the grace in the rearview mirror. From childbirth to shoplifting, all of life is touched. Prepare to laugh, cry, marvel, and find grace in the most surprising of places."" --Ian S. Markham, dean and president, Virginia Theological Seminary ""We look backwards in order to look forward. Grace in the Rearview Mirror by this select group of women offers an opportunity to listen to the beauty of God through lives lived. Here is offered a curiosity about God's beauty in our bodies, in our relationships, in our prayer, and ministry. Reading back into the lives of these women enables us to open our eyes wide to the possibility of God's beauty revealed in our own lives."" --C. Andrew Doyle, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas"
