Religion Journalist Gets in Touch With Feminine Side of Faith

In her book, Four Women, Three Faiths, journalist Cecile Holmes writes about some of the more remarkable personalities she has encountered in her long career as a religion reporter. Despite their vast differences, each of the women profiled is a true servant of God, and Holmes devotes much energy toward describing their direct impact on her own spiritual growth.
Four Women serves as a hymn to diversity and interfaith acceptance. You will meet P.K. McCary, the author of “Black Bible Chronicles,” a translation of the Bible into the language of America’s urban streets; Phoebe Griswold, wife of the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, who helped with the Ground Zero relief effort in September of 2001; Arunima Sinha, founder of a Hindu temple in Columbia, South Carolina, and interfaith dialogue advocate; and Riffat Hassan, a religious studies professor and Muslim feminist who campaigns on behalf of women across the Islamic world.
Holmes makes good use of her access to these remarkable personalities. She utilizes each of these captivating women as a mirror, reflecting her own soul in its search for female vindication in the eyes of God.
