Also heartfelt thanks to:

My patient and talented husband Daniel, who filmed my sermons for over five years and provided technical assistance during the preparation of this book.

Mathan Chakarabarthi and Ian Miska for website design.

Louisville Seminary, a faithful seed bed (seminary) for me, providing provocative instruction and most of all, Morgan Roberts! Morgan carried my seminary education for fifteen years beyond my graduation. The seminary was also a receptive place when I first introduced this book to them during the President’s Roundtable in 2019.

First Presbyterian Church in Elgin, Illinois, full of faithful listeners to my sermons, week after week. They provided the context for my journey. The choir, the Sunday school, the session, and each member gave me their love and shared the precious moments of their lives with me.

Holy Wisdom Monastery in Middleton, Wisconsin, the place that provided a space for me to write and retreat. The prayerful, peaceful, and beautiful monastery grounds were the place I made the decision to write the book and the place where I wrote many of the words in this book.
