Women at the Well: Feminist Perspectives on Spiritual Direction

Women at the Well is required reading for women who wish to grow spiritually, and for every spiritual director / pastoral counselor. Fischer provides a much-needed corrective to the literature on spiritual accompaniment with a method that includes a synthesis of scholarship and the stories of women’s lives. She addresses issues of power, anger, and violence against women, as well as women’s spiritual heritage…’ Katherine M.
