A fountain in the desert, this book fills a genuine need--which is more than most books can claim.\"\" --David Steindl-Rast, OSB \"\"Maggie Ross skillfully examines the gift and way of tears in relation to the evolution of Christian thought and spiritual theology. Her thesis that 'tears release us from the prison of power and control into the vast love and infinite possibility of God' is truly ecumenical.\"\" --William H.
