- Simultaneously theological, spiritual, moral, political, social, autobiographical - First-person narrative of one who was at the forefront at a significant time in church - and secular - history

Carter Heyward writes, "I'm persuaded by decades of teaching in seminary and work as a priest in the church that countless women, and many men as well, are faithful "Jesus people" and yet alienated to various degrees from organized religion. Jack Spong and Barbara Brown Taylor are two of the better known voices who have spoken to these people. This book of mine will probably stand with theirs in appealing to this large and diverse group of Jesus people who have become 'post Christians, ' 'cultural Christians, ' or have simply drifted away from the church."

She Flies On, however, is not really a critique of organized religion, but rather Heyward's effort to think theologically, politically, socially, and autobiographically about the world and the church in which she has lived and worked. A Christian feminist "theologian of liberation," Episcopal priest, lesbian, Southerner, and socialist Democrat, Heyward sees the writes about the church, but more about the people - and creatures - of God going about their lives and attempting to love one another.

Audience: Theologians, those interested in Carter's historical significance, feminists, "post Christians"

Life-changing
Format: Hardcover
This book my eyes to so many patterns that I've had since I was a child. I'm now much later in my life and wish I had had a book like this when I was in my 20s and 30s, and not my 70s. Nevertheless the information is always helpful and helped open my eyes to so many things. Nothing else that helps me move forward. I love all of Joyce's books and follow her Ministry. She is a no-nonsense straight to the punch speaker. She talks about very uncomfortable things. Which we still need to hear either way. So I recommend this book Kylie for anyone who's gone through rejection from friends, parents, friends, jobs, rejection from spouses. Joyce is a no-nonsense straight to the heart person. Sometimes we tiptoe around these issues, what's the point of that. I highly recommend this book

Amazing book
Format: Kindle
One of her best books---and I've read a lot of them. Ginger Stache's contributions were outstanding, too. This book provides so much insight and gives me great peace just from reading it. My main takeaway is that often, you are not the direct target of rejection. It frequently has more to do with the individual doing the rejecting than with the rejected. Also, it can just be God's way of protecting us from a relationship that will ultimately harm us. Highly recommend this book.
