Book Reviews of Sacred Circles: A Guide To Creating Your Own Women's Spirituality Group
Book Review: Excellent
Summary: 5 Stars
This is an excellent overview of women's spirituality groups. I am amazed at how similar it is to my own experience as a member of a "sacred circle." Anyone interested in forming such a group or curious about the experiences of others in such a group should read this book.Book Review: An excellent tool for the quest for the sacred feminine!
Summary: 5 Stars
I wish I had read this book when a friend and I tried to start a group that would study/read books about feminist theology. The concepts of council sharing, ritual, and the stages of community building would have been very helpful. I'm teaching a hospice volunteer training session class on spirituality soon and also a journal writing as a spiritual tool class at Chautauqua this summer and just got lots of ideas from this book, especially starting with a ritual that will include silence and an "altar" in the center of our space. A very practical and inspirational book!Book Review: Inspiring and practical guide that really works
Summary: 5 Stars
I used this book to start a spirituality group and I have nothing but praise for it! Everything you need to start your own group is there, including meeting topics that are already planned out for you. My group has relied heavily on this guide, both in our formative stage and also during the first few months of meetings. I anticipate that we will continue using it for at least another year or two. My copy has circulated amongst all the group members -- it's getting pretty dog-eared! "Sacred Circles" has been the main contributing factor in the success of my group.Book Review: Life Changing and Thought Provoking
Summary: 5 Stars
Regardless of whether you intend to start a women's group or not, this book is extremely thought provoking. I gave it to a friend and the discussions it instigated resulted in a deepening of our friendship. I recommend that you do not read it unless you are prepared to be challenged. It is fantastic and I am certain that I am a better person for having read it.
