Summary:
"The world of contemplative Christianity has yielded to the same voices for too long, most from centuries before our time with lives unlike ours and experiences disconnected from marginalization and oppression. Now Cassidy Hall flings the doors wide open for all seeking an inclusive, authentic, and definitely more queer contemplative experience"-- Provided by publisher.
