Cry pain, cry hope: Thresholds to purpose

Elizabeth O'Connor, writer, teacher, counselor, and leader of small growth groups, has been a staff member of The Church of The Saviour in Washington, D.C. for more than forty years. She is the founder of Sarah's Circle, a ministry with the elderly of an inner-city neighborhood. The author shares more intimately than usual in this newest work, offering personal reflections, journal style, on her own development over the last few years as she struggled to hear and respond to a call to build an inner-city residence for elderly women. O'Connor's concern with integrating the inward and outward journeys is certainly not new for her, but her willingness to reveal herself so fully represents a real departure from her earlier writing on this church's corporate story., ISBN13: 9780849906183 ISBN10: 0849906180 Material Type: hardcover
