The roots of my spiritual writing began when I spent seven years living a monastic life in a Trappist religious order in the 1970s. After retiring from a career as a grant writer, I returned to a daily practice of spiritual reading and writing, and The Women in His Life was born. It is my hope that these Gospel-based stories will benefit readers who are searching for a more personal experience of the central figure of the New Testament. The book is unique because these narratives are written from what I imagine to be the thoughts, words, and feelings of Jesus in each situation. I’ve tried to capture the individuality of forty-three women as Jesus interacted with them or reflected upon their lives. It is my wish that the reader’s spiritual journey will be richer after meditating upon these stories. Christian believers will discover the deep appreciation Jesus has for women of all ages and situations in life. I’m a Pennsylvania native and I’ve lived in Florida since the mid-1980s where I raised my son. In addition to writing, I enjoy traveling, photography, family, Reiki, and being with friends.
