If I Gave You God's Phone Number.... Searching for Spirituality in America

This book is a unique exploration of how different people experience the Divine or choose not to -- woven together with one woman's spiritual journey. Part memoir, part interview-based, Mare Cromwell interviews Christians, Jews, agnostics, a Cherokee Medicine woman and others in her search for a path that brings her closer to God. All interviews are framed by the question: "If I gave you God's phone number, what would you do with it?"; Sometimes shocking and sometimes inspirational, it is an honest aperture into the diverse perceptions of God, religion and spirituality in our society. It also speaks to one woman's journey away from the Catholic Church to a spirituality that more broadly encompasses a Creator - Earth Mother balance.
