Publisher's Summary

Every monastery exudes the scent of holiness, but women's monasteries have their own special flavor. Join Constantina Palmer as she makes frequent pilgrimages to a women's monastery in Greece and absorbs the nuns' particular approach to their spiritual life. If you're a woman who's read of Mount Athos and longed to partake of its grace-filled atmosphere, this book is for you. Men who wish to understand how women's spirituality differs from their own will find it a fascinating listen as well.

Beautiful book, beautifully read by the author

My young teen daughter and I both thoroughly enjoyed this inspiring, edifying, and thought-provoking audiobook. Constantina's heartfelt, yet soothing reading of it brought it to life for us. I had read it already in book form, and purchased the audiobook as a way to share it with my daughter, in the hopes that she would also love it, and I was not disappointed. We both highly recommend it, and are now going to listen to her next book!
