In this thought-provoking book Mary Catherine Hilkert reflects on the person and impact of Catherine of Siena as a means to examine the challenges facing contemporary women of faith. Known for her wisdom as well as her forthright speech, her role as counselor to the pope as well as church critic, her preaching as well as her prayer, Catherine can be a remarkable companion in hope for women today. The author first examines Catherine's 14th-century life and ministry. She then uses that as a mirror through which to explore three interrelated aspects of the source and authority of the works of faithful women in every age: 1) the authority of vocation, 2) the authority of wisdom and 3) the authority of compassion. Hilkert believes that as we ponder what it means for women to speak with the authority of the Spirit, Catherine's words and witness can offer insight and challenge. This book speaks to contemporary women, especially with its emphasis on women's roles and authority in the church. Persons interested in spirituality, feminism or history will be inspired by it as well. +
