    Too much 1960`s activism, too shallow spirituality.
  

*by D***B on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 9, 2015*

I was quite disappointed reading this book after author`s wonderful "Wisdom Distilled from the Daily", which I liked very much and found full of practical inside regarding spiritual life. But not this one. When reading it, I asked myself continually: Is it spiritual, or merely activist book?I understand that women`s rights and authority problems are needed to emphasise also in the context of Christian spirituality. But these passages are lengthy, never ending, gradually starting to be boring and repetitive. I would understand that if we were living in 1960`s. But I believe that we now live in quite a different world of 2015 and I do not need to read book which tells me that women should have the same rights as men do. I know it. You know it.And I am sorry, but my spiritual problem is not whether to use "He" or "She" when thinking about God. My questions go way deeper.I would be tolerant towards these passages in case I would find more interesting content in the book, helping me broaden understanding Creed from other perspectives. But the only I could find was: "old Church and everything before Vatican II was bad, was chauvinistic, was heavily limited. Lets change it. Change is needed. No theology, no understanding in too complicated historical perspectives. Just lets use inclusive language and lets see Jesus as big revolutionary and lets follow him." Again, for me too 1960s. I am not saying that this position is not correct at all, however it is too limited as such and especially in today context. The only good use of the book would in my opinion be to offer it for naive reader from traditional, strictly conservative Catholic background finding himself in crisis of faith stemming from his shallow understanding of theology, who would need to show that there is more than literal, shallow interpretation of every sentence in Creed and that Bible language is mythopoetic, not factual. But....is it enough for general reader? Isnt it something most of us who have read more spiritual/theological books know?I believe there are much more interesting books from the author ("Wisdom Distilled from Daily" among them).

    Radical feminist nun challenges you to examine your Christian faith--in a good way!
  

*by K***4 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on October 23, 2019*

I found this book through my Catholic reading group. Joan Chittister is a progressive nun who is very much on the side of groups of people that have been historically been ignored or dismissed by the Church. She has tried to eliminate/modify gender-biased language in prayers and creeds, and has attempted to stand up for people to whom no one else is listening to. She challenged my views on criminal punishment and enlightened me on how following Christ can mean having an opinion that goes against the status quo. In short, she's not a fan of organized religion! But it's more than interesting ideas; her writing is beautiful, and she reveals her fears, failings and joy in her faith in every chapter, as she comprehensively--but not ploddingly--revisits the layered meanings of the Nicene Creed. Best if read more than once.

    In Search of Belief
  

*by J***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 6, 2008*

Great read and resourceful for those like myself who are searching for relativity and growth in the Christian faith in our lives..  The author is a Catholic nun and I found her observations intelligent and refreshing.  She very much grounded in the teachings and humanity of Jesus and was without bitterness where she disagreed with the church policies. I took out a pencil and marker and highlighted and even re-wrote my new understanding at the beginning of each chapter.  I bought this for one of my adult daughters for Christmas this year .  Perhaps she can find a way to be more comfortable in reciting the Apostle's Creed.  It certainly helped me to use words that I have come to believe of the Creed and to tolerate any I found did not reflect those beliefs.
