Kerry Dearborn does a beautiful job of weaving together various streams and threads Bethany L Dearborn Dr. Kerry Dearborn does a beautiful job of weaving together various streams and threads. She powerfully articulates the need for us to receive from the Holy Spirit both for our own transformation towards true self and for our welcome of those we may see as other.
Snyder, author of Salvation Means Creation Healed''It is through the imagination that God's Spirit carries creativity, hope, and love into our hearts 'past the intellectual and psychological constructs that can isolate us from God and others.' This is a refreshing and renewing book that contributes important insights for all of us who long for the wonder of reconciled life with beloved brothers and sisters of every tribe, tongue, and nation.''--Christine Sine, author of Return to Our Senses''Standing within a long strand of Christian spirituality, Dearborn offers important balance to the voices earnestly commending efforts at reconciliation, shifting attention to the renewing presence of the Holy Spirit that evokes and sustains authentic human effort, in part by purifying and enlivening our imagination.''--Ran
