Book description
The long-awaited book from best-selling spiritual guide Joyce Rupp,
creatively leads readers to explore how the image of the door can guide
them in a process of discovering their true self. Joyce Rupp brings new
life to the ageless spiritual image of the door, weaving insights from
East and West with the wisdom of contemporary spiritual writers, poets,
and novelists in a practical format that is just right for contemporary
readers. Structured as a daily prayer guide for everyday use over six
weeks, each day offers a thematic reflection, a guided meditation, an
original prayer, a thoughtful question, and a related scripture quote. A
built-in guide for small groups makes this the perfect resource for
groups of all kinds as well as individuals. Sister Joyce Rupp, O.
S.M., is an award-winning Catholic author who is well known for her work
as a spiritual "midwife" and retreat and conference speaker.
She has led retreats throughout North America, as well as in Europe,
Asia, Africa, Australia, and New Zealand. She is also the co-director of
The Institute of Compassionate Presence, a member of the Servite Order,
and a volunteer for Hospice. Joyce has a Bachelor of Arts degree in
English, a Master of Arts degree in Transpersonal Psychology, and a

Moines, Iowa.
