Winged With Longing For Better Things
Sylvia SweeneyPaperback 2019-11-17
Publisher Description
* A Lenten devotional written from an eco-feminist perspective * Deeply affirming of women and of our created world Rather than classical penitence, this book emphasizes intercession, solidarity, and preparation. Its aim is to help readers learn to view the world incarnationally and sacramentally. In rejecting one's own embodiment and the natural world, the earth is being irreparably harmed by our destructive actions. The book invites readers to move beyond sympathy for those in strife into action and advocacy on the behalf of the earth and its less powerful inhabitants. Photographs and poetry enhance the daily devotional readings.
