Witch. Bitch. Heretic.

""We are taken on a ride that is part lamenting rant and part stubborn hope--all of it seared with a vulnerability that invites our own. It is plain spoken--an economy of words that pack in large amounts of poetic power on the impossibility of life and the possibility of new life. This is unabashed and honest dialogue with the Divine in their many forms about the heartbreak and insatiable lure of being a spiritual leader dwelling within institutionally defined margins."" --Marcia McFee, Creator, Worship Design Studio ""Solar writes with piercing honesty about the realities of motherhood, womanhood, and daily life. She challenges us to see faith and lived experience as one holistic truth. Part reflection, incantation, critique, lament, and prayer, this book confronts a church that goes through the motions and calls us toward a more authentic, courageous, and compassionate faith."" --Bridget Cabrera, Executive Director, Methodist Federation for Social Action ""Rebekah Solar has done a brave thing by opening the contents of her heart to the page and letting us readers bear witness to the complexity of religious leadership in trying times. . . . One shouldn't try to pin down Solar's writing, not only because it moves fluidly from poetry to memory to manifesto and back again, but because there is so much life in her words, and we should not try to pin living things down."" --Anastasia Kidd, Director of Contextual Education, Boston University
