Book Description Poet Edwina Gateley joins with artist Louis Glanzman to reveal the souls of women loved by Jesus.
"Soul touches soul through poety and art . . . . Nothing could bring us closer to these women--women like Elizabeth, Martha, and Mary Magdalene--whose stories are also our stories."--Ligourian
“When I first saw Louis Glanzman’s paintings of twelve women in the gospels whose names are so familiar, something happened inside me. After a lifetime of knowing all about these women I felt, at last, that I had actually met them. Indeed I had. They were people I already knew: homemakers, sex workers, child runaways, crones, teachers, mothers, senior citizens...all of them knew Jesus. All of them were achetypes who reflected the journeys, struggles, joys and dreams of women today."--Edwina Gateley
Includes 12 full-color paintings by Louis Glanzman, one of America's most honored portraitists. He is famed for eightly marvelous Time magazine covers as well as his beloved drawings for the Pippi Longstocking series.
