        From the Age of Faith comes this work of spiritual rediscovery, casting light on six women mystics who teach us that the mystical experience of God is inexhaustible.  In these striking and sustaining depictions of seven remarkable women, Flinders brings to life a chorus of wisdom from the past that speaks with remarkable relevance to our contemporary spiritual quests.

        From Clare of Assisi in the Middle Ages to Therese of Lisieux in the late nineteenth century, Flinders’s compelling and refreshingly informal portraits reveal a common foundation of conviction, courage, and serenity in the lives of these great European Catholic mystics. Their distinctly female voices enrich their writings on the experience of the inner world, the nourishing role of friendship and community in our lives, and on finding our true work.

        At its heart, Enduring Grace is a living testament to how we can make peace with sorrow and disappointment and bring joy and transcendence into our lives.”
