Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Sullivan, a counselor for religious women, writes with deep sensitivity of the desire for love in various forms--charity, friendship, sexual--and of the enemies of love--egoism, fear, neurotic guilt. He puts equal emphasis on what he calls the friends of love: humility, faith, and reverence. He concludes: "Everything then depends on my vision . . . by how I interpret things, by the meaning I give them through the filters from my childhood." He shows how humility, faith, and reverence enlarge vision, reveal reality, and support awareness of the pervasiveness of divine presence while facilitating the response of appreciation and gratitude. This is a beautiful, meditative book for seminary and public libraries.
