Synopsis
When Kathleen Norris began attending her grandmother's small-town church she was a poet with more doubt than faith. Her biggest struggle was with the language of the Christian religion, and words such as 'judgement', 'prayer', 'faith', 'dogma', 'salvation'.

Review
Kathleen Norris (author of The Cloister Walk) speaks to the great internal barricade that many spiritual seekers experience when they return to their childhood roots in Christianity; the language blocks the way. Words such as exorcism, demonic, sinner, and judgement act as locked gates, especially for those who have studied New Age notions and feminist ideology. As a seeker, feminist and poet, Norris was especially sensitive to the language of Christianity when she began her journey back to the Christian church. Word by word, Norris offers a contemplative discussion of how the scary language of Christianity can become palatable and even offer amazing comfort and grace. --Gail Hudson
