While there are many books for women featuring the psalms, Barbara J. Monda is the first to offer a woman's version of these beloved sacred songs. She reveals a feminine image of God that embodies the strong yet nurturing feminine persona. Writing with a deep understanding of a woman's spiritual perspective, Monda has created poetry that speaks of God in both feminine and neutral terms. Here you'll find more than a new translation or the simple interjection of feminine language. Monda presents a new vision of the psalms, fashioned through the passionate and enlightened eyes and heart of a woman. This book invites those who may have felt excluded by the traditional presentation of the psalms to experience their beauty and power in a fresh and inclusive voice.
