The writers include a range from the 4th century Egeria of Spain to 20th names such as Simone Weil, Evelyn Underhill and Dorothy Day. Their concerns are broad ranging and they reflect on: Prayer, Family life, a woman's lot, suffering, comfort and consolation, women's ministry and its restrictions and more.   All these varied voices are linked by a common thread: in every age women have sought authentic spiritual self expression. This anthology is an inspiration for all women today who are seeking opportunity to define and realise their charisma.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49518534066449,"sku":"GOR004200412","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49611784257809,"sku":"GOR013107431","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52405186953489,"sku":"NLS9781853116803","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1853116807.jpg?v=1750802649"},{"product_id":"consecrated-spirits-book-felicity-leng-9781853119521","title":"Consecrated Spirits","description":"Many silent and forgotten voices are brought to life in this volume which presents the accumulated wisdom of women mystics, theologians, spiritual directors, poets, visionaries, mothers and activists over eleven centuries.

Taking this as her theme, Felicity Leng has shown how Therese's flowering as a Saint was a process of hardship, inner conflict and physical and moral endurance.  The Little Way (her spiritual message) has become something immensely appealing to people from all walks of life. There is constant demand for books on Therese, yet no book or article on her has shown the various sources of her flower imagery and how she drew on them to shape her unique vision of herself and her never-ending relationship with God, people, the Church and the natural world.  The reader is constantly pointed to Therese as a living personality with a mature creative imagination. Her concept of purpose, redemption, effort, suffering and joy, now and hereafter, is gradually constructed throughout the book.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49582834745617,"sku":"GOR001544493","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52125159653649,"sku":"NLS9780860123491","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52740450877713,"sku":"NIN9780860123491","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0860123499.jpg?v=1751465181"},{"product_id":"invincible-spirits-book-felicity-leng-9782895078722","title":"Invincible Spirits","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49909223096593,"sku":"CIN2895078726G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/2895078726.jpg?v=1751158372"},{"product_id":"consecrated-spirits-book-felicity-leng-9780809147908","title":"Consecrated Spirits","description":"The church as an institution comes in for more than enough criticism, yet in its monastic life, it enjoys an extraordinarily high regard, far beyond the confines of the religious book trade. Consider the appeal of writers such as Wendy Beckett, Christopher Jamison, or Basil Hume. This attractive new collection presents writings by women religious from the Roman, Anglican, and Orthodox traditions from the earliest years of Christianity to the present day. Marked by a keen intelligence, wisdom, and integrity, the writings include prayers, meditations, expositions, autobiography, spiritual advice, and comments on and recommendations for the pursuit of the spiritual life. Featured writers include Julian of Norwich, Hildegard of Bingen, Catherine of Siena, Teresa of Avila, Therese of Lisieux, Bernadette of Lourdes, Bridget of Sweden, Wendy Beckett, Joan Chittister, and many more.  †","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50366912397585,"sku":"CIN0809147904VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50984520646929,"sku":"NIN9780809147908","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51324370485521,"sku":"CIN0809147904G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52683594170641,"sku":"NLS9780809147908","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0809147904.jpg?v=1750882923"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-felicity-leng.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
