Healing the Sacred Divide offers a reprieve from

unrelenting anxiety and guilt about never being

good enough, and helps you connect intimately

with what truly feels sacred to you.

Author Jean Raffa helps us deal successfully with

strife and divisions in ourselves, our relationships,

and our world by first associating common dysfunctions

with popular ways of thinking about God, then showing

how to enter the “divide” where polarized views and

forces meet as a sacred place of innovation and potential

common ground. . . .

approach makes Emerson palatable and relevant to

a new generation of inquisitive readers across

denominational lines." —Library Journal, May 1, 2010

America.” This is the first book to combine

with the theme of achieving America’s unique

promise as a nation. . . .
