Embracing Weakness

The Unlikely Secret to Changing the World

By: Shannon K. Evans

Shannon K. Evans spent a good portion of her life denying that she was weak. Like many Christians, she was concerned with living a moral life, sticking to religious absolutes, holding leadership positions, and working on service projects. And then the truth of her inner brokenness smacked her in the face, first through her work as a missionary, and afterward through motherhood. Embracing Weakness: The Unlikely Secret to Changing the World is a story of vulnerability, of how one woman learned that before she could respond to the weakness of others she must first accept her own weakness as a gift, revealed in the Incarnation and Passion of Christ. Shannon shares how God led her to understand: Where we go wrong in our understanding of admitting weakness How we effectively numb ourselves to avoid the hard work of conversion What the Incarnation and Passion are really inviting us to do What belonging means for us, and how weakness brings us together How embracing weakness can transform our homes — and the world If you’re ready for a vibrant spiritual life overflowing with mercy — experienced and extended — read Embracing Weakness.

Rewilding Motherhood

Your Path to an Empowered Feminine Spirituality

By: Shannon K. Evans

Women are often told by their communities that being a mother will complete or define them. But many mothers find themselves depleted and spiritually stagnant amid the everyday demands of being a mom. They long to experience a rich inner life but feel there is rarely enough time, energy, or stillness to connect with God in a meaningful way. This book takes the concept of rewilding and applies it to motherhood. Just as an environmentalist seeks to rewild land by returning it to its natural state, Shannon Evans invites women to rewild motherhood by reclaiming its essence through an expansive feminine spirituality. Drawn from the contemplative Catholic tradition and Evans's own parenting experience, Rewilding Motherhood helps women deepen their connection to God through practices inherent to the life they're living now. Topics include work-life balance, identity, solitude, patience, household work, and mission for the common good. Throughout, Evans encourages women to see motherhood as an opportunity to discover a vibrant feminine spirituality and a deeper knowledge of God and self.

The Mystics Would Like a Word

Six Women Who Met God and Found a Spirituality for Today

By: Shannon K. Evans

Discover a rich legacy of audacious women who forged a spirituality that is more inclusive, surprising, and empowering than we ever imagined. “The feminist reading of women mystics I’ve wanted for ages . . . invites us into the hopeful possibility for communal healing that we desperately need right now.”—Sarah Bessey, bestselling author of Field Notes for the Wilderness and Jesus Feminist Is there a Christian spirituality that embraces the entire reality of womanhood? The answer, Shannon K. Evans suggests, is an emphatic yes. There is a spirituality that meets us in every part of our lives, developed by the women who came before us. Six mystics—Teresa of Ávila, Margery Kempe, Hildegard of Bingen, Julian of Norwich, Catherine of Siena, and Thérèse of Lisieux—revealed a faith big enough to hold the female experiences of sex and desire, the yearning for bodily autonomy, the challenges of motherhood and identity, as well as life with male authority and—sometimes—violence. These women, self-determining, stubborn, and unapologetically themselves, asked questions in their time that are startlingly prescient today, and fought for women’s experiences to be heard, understood, respected, and recognized as holy. In The Mystics Would Like a Word, readers will discover the story of Christian faith and spirituality as told by these extraordinary and wise women, one that speaks directly to today’s unique experiences, and leads to wholeness, healing, and spiritual vitality.

Luminous

A 30-Day Journal for Accepting Your Body, Honoring Your Soul, and Finding Your Joy

By: Shannon K. Evans

What if your body could be a good and true part of your spiritual life? Every day, women are inundated with internal and external messages that pit us against our own bodies, resulting in dissatisfaction, shame, and an inability to experience our bodies as connected to our souls. We long to break these chains and reclaim the sacredness of our flesh and bones, but lack the tools to do so--keeping us stuck in harmful cycles of self-loathing. In Luminous: a 30-Day Journal for Accepting Your Body, Honoring Your Soul, and Finding Your Joy, author Shannon K. Evans offers women the chance to reflect on the connection between our bodies and our souls, to question the lies we have swallowed about things like aging and weight gain, and to dare to imagine a vibrant spiritual life that radiates from the inside out.
